Knowles House Redevelopment

The next Brent Council Cabinet meeting is being asked to approve the redevelopment of Knowles House on Longstone Avenue.  This promises 149 units and a new community centre.  A short description is available. I don't really understand why they are building a "community centre" when the building is immediately in frontof Roundwood Youth Club which they are proposing to turn into a PRU.  I would have thought keeping the Youth Centre, would be a more sensible use of resources since it was purpose built only a few years ago

I do remember suggesting that giving Roundwood Youth Club a frontage on the Avenue and the possible housing to be built on the Knowles House site a view of Roundwood Park, but was told at the time that the funding would not allow it.
