Goose Green councillors - how can we help?
UVArchitects replied to jamesmcash's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Maybe quite a few people in a number of departments in the borough need a kick up the arse. The barriers that have been put up are inadequate as it is likely to fall into the road. It should be scaffolded immediately or half of the road closed off. -
Goose Green councillors - how can we help?
UVArchitects replied to jamesmcash's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Hi It was several months ago, it was only when i passed last week that i noticed it had markedly shifted outwards. I dont think new the barriers are sufficient as the panel will clearly fall onto the pavement and possibly into the road. it is shifting on a daily basis and i think it could come down at any time.

slightly worrying though as the panel above the bay will clearly fall outwards and will most likely land on the pavement. -

If you think its a danger, notify Southwark Building Control, it is there duty to at least assess it and take action if necessary -

Hi I reported it as a dangerous structure, the council are empowered to either enforce action by the owner or take remedial action themselves and charge the owner: https://www.southwark.gov.uk/planning-and-building-control/building-control/dangerous-structures 'We have statutory duties to deal with dangerous structures under the London Local Authorities Act 2000 and the London Building Acts (Amendment) Act 1939, to ensure that all structures within the borough which are considered dangerous are made safe with the shortest possible delay.' -

Just a quick warning to maybe avoid walking past this house on CPR, i think it is no. 234 but im not sure, its between pellatt and rodwell. I notified Southwark some months ago, but it would appear not a lot has been done, it has got steadily worse and seems to be deteriorating by the day and looks like the bricks could fall onto the pavement any day now. I would cross the road! -
Happy to DM you a quote

Just such a shame that the opportunity to put a quality architectural solution in a very prominent point on Lordship Lane is being spurned. Reminds me of the Harris Primary debacle.

Anyone else experiencing A power cut in Goodrich road area ?

Denmark Hill station entrance shambles
UVArchitects replied to Ginster's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
James Perhaps it would be an idea to move the platforms at Loughborough Junction so that an it can serve both lines therby increasing connectivity and reducing the pressure on, or replacing Denmark hill with a larger more accessible station. Would happily discuss our ideas with you in person if you would like. Mick -
difficult to know whether a closed case is empty or not, it looked a bit like a musical instrument case, though it was dark

if you shave your head, you are bald. No?

Disturbed a bald white guy trying to stash a large case behind my bike shed at 2am last night. Afterwards he scooted off towards Friern Road on his bike taking his large black case with him. No sign of anything else suspicious. Keep 'em peeled

We asked Mehmet to work on a couple of gardens that we look after and he did it very well and reasonable, very polite and easy to get in touch with. we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. Mick uvarchitects

What's happening to old ED police station?
UVArchitects replied to dwatkins's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Good design doesn't have to cost anymore to build, its just the level of thought that is brought to bear at the design stage -
What's happening to old ED police station?
UVArchitects replied to dwatkins's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Hi James It is clearly bigger on the Lordship Lane fa?ade as can be seen by the architects image. I understand you pushing for it to be approved so as it can provide school places quickly, but the community should not be rushed into approving something of such mediocre design quality on such a prominent corner of such an important thoroughfare. -

UVArchitects replied to dwatkins's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Well they've changed the plans, and made it bigger!!! They've also painted the fa?ade with bricks and made it a bit sunnier. Seems amusing that they seem to have taken the aesthetic of the offices above Iceland as inspiration. Lordship Lane deserves a lot better than this. -
