The Secretary of State has called a Public Inquiry to take place on 17th and 18th October at Hackney Town Hall to determine the future of Richmond House, Richmond Road. Developers Nellbush Limited have proposed two schemes for the site, to be called Hackney Studios, which offer no viable option to SPACE artists to stay in the building. Hackney has refused both applications which result in this appeal
hearing. The development will result in a loss of creative businesses in Hackney. This will also affect SPACEs ability to deliver education and training programmes for the benefit of local people. SPACE has leased studio buildings in Hackney since 1971 and Richmond House since 1982. The other leaseholders are MOMART art shippers and Flowers East. The building forms part of Central Hackneys cultural quarter, along with Hackneys Learning and Technology Centre including the Hackney Museum, Hackney Empire, Freeform Arts Trust and the Ocean building. We support Hackney's opposition to the proposed development
plans which will ruin 16 artists livelihoods, with no viable prospect of re-housing. SPACE provides affordable workspace for over 600 artists and creative businesses, over 400 of these being in Hackney. SPACE represents a sustainable part of the arts economy and brings inward investment to the borough. We are concerned that SPACE and its artists will not be able to find other suitable or affordable accommodation in Hackney. This will be a loss to the creative vitality and employment in the borough, for which it is famous. We encourage Hackney in using planning mechanisms available to it to protect the loss of a cultural building and of workspace which is affordable for the creative sector. With pressures from redevelopment and the Olympics,
SPACE are working to ensure the future of culture in the borough and need your support in this. Please attend the Public Inquiry in person. Your support will make a difference. Please click
