Capital and Regional is holding two drop-in engagement events to share updated details of The Mall redevelopment proposals at the former YumYum Unit, 202 Hoe Street, Walthamstow, E17 4BS from 10am to 6pm on Friday 25 October and Saturday 26 October 2019.
These are being held before aplanning application is submitted for the proposed changes.

The drop-in engagement events will provide details of:
- An application from Capital & Regional to make improvements to the existing planning permission to improve design and layout, incorporate a potential future station entrance to the Victoria Line and speed up the delivery programme.
- A new planning application from Transport for London for a new entrance to the Walthamstow Central underground station with a bigger ticket hall.
This proposal deliver 20 per cent affordable housing on site and provides a further 10 per cent financial contribution to Waltham Forest Council to deliver a total of 30 per cent affordable housing, including homes for social rent.
Both applications will be reported to the Council’s Planning Committee and will need to be referred to the Greater London Authority (GLA)

No changes to the scheme for the Town Square are proposed.
The number of trees in the Town Square will be increased, compared to the number currently there.
In addition Waltham Forest Council has pledged it will plant five additional trees for each tree removed from the Town Square.
These trees will be planted in different parts of the borough to help improve air quality for future generations across Waltham Forest.
Most of the shops in The Mall are now open for business following the major fire this summer, and more are aiming to be open ready for Christmas shoppers.
Some of the businesses have taken the opportunity to refurbish their stores as part of dealing with the fire and water damage.
Unfortunately, part of the roof of the building needs to be replaced as a result of the fire and a planning application for this will be submitted in due course.
