Resident-led renewal of a 1930s Hackney estate delivering safer homes, stronger community ties, and improved energy performance
HTA’s refurbishment of Lea View House transformed a deteriorating Hackney estate into a vibrant, safe, and inclusive place to live. Through intensive resident engagement and architectural innovation, the design restructured homes for modern living, improved energy efficiency, and restored community life. The project became a pioneering model for tenant-led estate renewal, improving living conditions and reconnecting residents to their homes and each other.
