Chrisp Street district centre, which lies immediately
opposite the site on the northern side of the A13, is
also identified as an enhanced retail area with proposals
to improve the current retail offer. It is also noted that
the potential increase in local employment and housing
in and around Chrisp Street will help to sustain existing
businesses and facilitate new activities.
More detailed area frameworks have been developed
for a number of locations. including Chrisp Street (see
figure 3), which present ideas and principles covering
land uses, urban form, massing and layout, transport and
links to existing communities.
Proposals tor Chrisp
Street include substantial investment in new buildings
and the creation of a high quality innovative public
realm. Poplar Baths is identified as a key private sector
investment opportunity.
