Chrisp Street Market

LRS are supporting the regeneration of Chrisp Street Market, in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, for the site's owners - housing association Poplar Harca.

The regeneration of Chrisp Street Market will benefit the local area and improve the current town centre, therefore ensuring it thrives and grows continually for residents and local businesses.

Plans for the revitalised area include refurbishment of current shops, alongside new shops as well as providing a large market with new stalls. In addition, the project will provide a new canopy for the market and increase affordable housing.

Other benefits for Chrisp Street Market include:

• New cinema
• New restaurants
• Two pocket parks
• New Sure Start Centre (Children’s Centre)
• Brand new, large community hub
• Restored and accessible Festival of Britain clock tower
• New Post Office
• Improved security

"Overall this project will contribute towards a thriving town centre and contribute towards the creation of an estimated 450 new jobs."
