for Gravesend and Northfleet

THE IMAGES THEY DIDN’T WANT YOU TO SEE

Urban Gravesham has obtained secret images of the monstrous tower proposed for Gravesend’s Heritage Quarter. Urban Gravesham’s request for Information was ignored by the Council for months - until the Civic Society threatened to take the Council to the Information Commissioner - the government’s body responsible for policing the Freedom of Information Act.

The images, from the Town Pier, from St George’s Church, and from the Market Square are truly frightening. They reveal the very large scale of all the new development - not just the tower, and demonstrate the vast slab-like scale of the 32 storey tower block.)
