The final draft of a masterplan to overhaul a huge swathe of Tottenham opposite the proposed new Spurs stadium has been unveiled to residents, including a public square with an amphitheatre surrounded by cafes, bars and restaurants.

Haringey Council’s regeneration plans for the area, known as High Road West, have been on the boil for more than two years but are now at an advanced stage, with a final public consultation launched this week.

The vision includes a new library and enterprise centre to replace ones being demolished, and “clusters” of modern homes alongside a 5,000sq metre public space now dubbed Moselle Square - which would also double as Tottenham Hotspur’s controversial “Wembley Way”-style approach for fans arriving from a revamped White Hart Lane station.

Moselle Square would have space for community events and pop-up screenings, and be a destination in its own right for people to meet and relax, said the council.

The masterplan is based on one of three outline plans put to residents and businesses last year, said to have been the most popular option among those who responded.

It was also the plan that offered the most comprehensive and intensive redevelopment of the area - huge swathes of land including businesses and homes will be demolished.

In their place, some 1,200 new homes, including family houses with gardens and flats and maisonettes with private courtyards, are proposed, alongside a new park running north-south (roughly in line with the High Road junctions with Brantwood Road and Northumberland Park) in the heart of a completely new residential quarter, including children’s play space an outdoor gym.

White Hart Lane station’s entrance will also be relocated to the south to link up with Moselle Square. A number of purpose-built industrial units will offer space for start-up businesses to grow, and “a better mix of shops” on the High Road are also promised.

The masterplan covers a huge 11 hectares, stretching between Tottenham High Road to the east and White Hart Lane station to the west.

It runs from Coombes Croft Library in the south to the edge of the former Cannon Rubber factory in the north, where a new school is being built and the 22-storey Brook House tower is nearing completion. That development will provide 100 flats and be surrounded by a further 122 low-rise homes for rent.

The High Road West scheme is separate from the Spurs stadium development - which technically still hangs in the balance due to a High Court appeal - but its entire conception is predicated on the assumption the stadium will be built, and much of its layout is heavily tailored to compliment and benefit from Tottenham Hotspur’s presence.

As if these schemes weren’t big enough, they both fit within an even larger overarching plan for Tottenham that includes Seven Sisters, Tottenham Green, Tottenham Hale and Northumberland Park, called the Tottenham Area Action Plan.

The public consultation on High Road West runs from now until October 25, with several public meetings planned (see ‘Related links’ to right of this article for details).

This feedback will be considered before the scheme goes to Haringey Council’s cabinet, probably in December, for endorsement. It will then be absorbed into the Tottenham Area Action Plan, which will also be put out for public consultation next year, before the council starts to seek a developer partner to get on board, and detailed planning applications start to be submitted.

Cllr Alan Strickland, cabinet member for housing and regeneration, said: “We’re determined that every family in Haringey should have the high-quality housing, support to find work and transport links they need to fulfil their potential, and these exciting proposals support that ambition.

“Residents have been clear that they want open space at the heart of the community, and we’re determined to bring the first-class public spaces that go hand-in-hand with proposals for new housing.

“We’ve listened closely to what residents and businesses had to say about our initial ideas and spent the last year fine-tuning the designs at drop-in events, fun days and workshops.

“I share residents’ passion to use this once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform our community for the better, and I hope that as many people as possible have their say.”

Anyone else absolutely petrified another London club is going to overtake us?

Arsenal forging ahead was painful
Chelsea was unberable
Fucking West Ham?! This is surely some kind of sick joke.

Yet still no picture showing just how far away the fans will be from them action. Their artists impressions are laughable and it's been the same from the start. Their fans are getting effed over and most of them know it.

The key figure here is the corporate seating. They are restricted by how many they can have. This is what pulls in the real money on match day. Their new stadium will have around half of what Arsenal have and it will be about half of what we have too once we are built.

People need not be worried. In ten years we will be even further infront of them as a club. Once our purpose built football stadium is built, we will be the envy of London, Arsenal included.

Those who are "worried" by the joke that is West Ham should look at the bigger picture. We will have the last laugh, we always do when it comes to these chancers.

The moaning will be fun.

None of which will happen without the stadium build which is the counter argument to the Archway position that the stadium isn't necessary for the regeneration.
Other than that all I have to say is Wow!

Harringey Council - the official version of High Road West with Moselle Square (alias 'Stadium Way')

the stadium is obviously important but if something like this can't spark wider regeneration and development in Tottenham then the area might as well give up. It will never improve.

Interesting how Haringey are releasing these plans just as the cpo, allowing the first stage of this regeneration, gets challenged in the high court.

A worrying picture indeed. An albino family, where the young girl is obviously overweight, and the baby has a peculiarly small head, indicating hormonal growth deficiency :pompous:

Haha, the lengths they have to go to so as not to depict race etc. but if you ever go for a drink in Tottenham on non match day the locals are indeed pretty fkin weird. Like being in that bar in one of the Star Wars movies...

Arsenal have 150 boxes. West Ham will have 30.

Put this in the wrong thread earlier. So thought I owuld post in here.

I think it would of been better to develop the existing site rather than the "blue emirates" we have planned.

Ww could of started with the West stand. Currently holds only 6800. Built in its place a 20,000 seater stand with all the coroprate facilities needed. Plenty of room on the west side of the stadium to do something very sepcial. Similar to the new anfield stand or the north stand at old trafford.

In the mean time capacity would be reduced to 30,000 for a season or so.

Then once this is completed demolish and rebuilt the East stand. Currently holds 10,700. In its place built a 15,000 seater stand. Again with all the corporate facilities needed.

Whilst work on the East stand is being done the capaicity would be 38,500.

Then once this is done replace the roofs on the North and South stands with something iconic and special.

and your left with something like this..



Capacity of around 54,000 in a unique iconic stadium which is quite clearly White HArt LAne.

Anyone else think this would be better than a boring generic bowl like the "blue emirates" we currently have planned.

I'd like us to have a larger pitch and think that will help our style of play. It's congested down at the lane and smaller teams are able to stifle us and park the bus much more easily.

A new stadium would allow us to do this. Also, updating WHL stand by stand means the rest of the stadium will always remain outdated - for the massive push we've made in the last 10 years to haul ourselves up the table with some top class players, training centre and youth set up, I'd like us to complete the job by delivering a brand new shiny stadium please.

What about the roads? You can't move the pitch if you are building one stand at a time. So how can you expand the east stand?

Amazing, looking at those images, that they've managed to treble the capacity of the West Stand, and build a series of flats or offices, in the current space occupied by the West Stand and a small car park. Where's the High Road gone?!
