The area really needs goodquality family housing houses with your own entranceand garden, instead of allthese flats. But it has to beaffordable!
We haveAdjusted our plans to increase theocus on quality amily housing,reducing the amount o one and twobed fats. The new plans now showsignificantly more housing made upo terraces, mews and squares, withtheir own ront doors and gardens.

more Jobs,better Jobs
We saidWe know that real jobs andopportunities to build careersacross a range o business sectorsis what will leave a lasting successrom the Games. The Park and itskey employment hubs will start toaddress this need by providing upto 8000 new jobs. Ater the Games,
the Park could provide space andvenues or a variety o businessesand industries, including:
creative, arts and media education and training retail and leisure sport and recreation conservation and environment professional and business
services hospitality and tourism light industry

The Park must be easy forlocal people to use andget to. The area cant be abarrier again.

We believeLinks with existing communities arereally important. Bridges and clearroutes into the Park or those wholive in the communities nearby are akey part o our plans. Ultimately, wehope the legacy plans will help to re-connect the Park with its surroundingareas, and help stitch communitiesback together again.
