High-rise blocks proposed for former gasholder site

gasholder site artists impression...to this?

A new development proposed for Hobart Corner, New Southgate, would consist of two high-rise residential blocks with commercial spaces on the ground floor. The new buildings, providing 183 new homes, will replace the gasholder which was demolished in September, after serving as a local landmark since the 1930s. City & Suburban Homes hope to submit a planning application this winter. In the meantime, there is an online consultation to gauge local opinion.

Southgate District Civic Voice's latest newsletter includes photographs taken by Colin Barratt during the demolition process. SDCV has arranged with the trustees of New Southgate Millennium Green for the installation of an interpretation board on the Green, explaining the history of the gasholder and associated gasworks. A finial from the top of one of the gasholder columns will be installed next to the interpretation board.

A planning application has now been submitted for the redevelopment of the site of the former gas holder at Hobart Corner. Two tower blocks, 14 and 19 storeys high, would accommodate 182 flats. The development is close to both New Southgate and Arnos Grove stations and would have only a few parking spaces, for blue badge holders. The developers envisage an existing nearby controlled parking zone being expanded and no on-street parking being available for residents of the new flats.

The artist's impression above, included in the planning documentation, shows the view from Bounds Green Road.

The planning application reference is 20/04193/FUL and documentation can be found on the online planning portal .
