11. London Docklands Case Study Area began to decline due to increasing size of ships, could no longer come up the Thames, also CONTAINERISATION, ships were bigger so able to transport more kinds of goods. In the 1970’s last dock closed and the last 10, 000 jobs went In the 1980’s government invested money in URBAN DEVELOPMENT CORPERATIONS (UDC’s) to improve areas sent into decline by DEINDUSTRIALISATION (loss of industry) The LDDC (London Dockland Development Corporation) ploughed money into setting up a new financial district (canary wharf), with new offices in nice location, transport was improved to cope with the new people entering (DLR and East London line). Jobs were skilled (tertiary and quaternary) not secondary (like those that had been lost). So attracted professional people to the area, who were wealthier, houses were built for them, higher prices so locals priced out, businesses moved in (posh restaurants). Area boosted financially, but local residents (Eastenders priced out and eventually many had to leave) http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningzone/clips/the -changing-face-of-london-london- docklands/8317.htmlhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/learningzone/clips/the -changing-face-of-london-london- docklands/8317.html Make notes from this video clip

13. Modern Style Improvement Regenerating and rebranding East London The 2012 Olympic games- did they successfully rebrand and regenerate the east end of London socially, environmentally and economically??? Use evidence from the booklet to answer the question below- The London Olympic games in 2012 successfully regenerated and rebranded East London. To what extent do you agree? (10)

14. The five new suburbs, named by Londoners 1) Chobham Manor Newham The first neighbourhood due to open, in 2015. There will be 800 homes over 9.3 hectares, 70 per cent of which will be for families. Built on the site of a 14th- century manor house of the same name. 2) Marshgate Wharf Newham Surrounding the Aquatics Centre, Olympic Stadium and ArcelorMittal Orbit tower, there will be houses and flats as well as a “cultural promenade” along the canal with shops, restaurants, bars, galleries and open air performance space. 3)Sweetwater Tower Hamlets Home to a mix of artists’ studios, flats and family homes along the Lea Navigation Canal. New bridges to connect pedestrians and cyclists with the adjacent Fish Island are planned. The name comes from the sweet factory which stood here in the mid-20th century. 4) Pudding Mill Newham Adjacent to Stratford High Street, this will be a mix of industrial and business sites alongside houses next to the Bow Back River. Pudding Mill refers to the medieval flour mills that used to stand on the River Lee. 5) East Wick Hackney Family housing around the parklands, with a strong cycling network to the Lea Valley. On the site where Eton Manor was during the Games. Includes what is now Hackney Wick.

15. The new Waterden Road will give access to Park facilities and the surrounding areas of Hackney, Leyton and Stratford. While residents of Leyton and Hackney have had to drive the long way round the Park site to get to Stratford, the new Waterden Road will link the three neighbourhoods directly. As well as making the entire area more accessible, this will give new bus routes and cars direct and easy access to the Park’s facilities, as well as Westfield Stratford City.

16. Westfield Stratford City generated £896m of retail sales in its first year with 47 million visitors entering the shopping centre. The centre attracted more than one million people in its first seven days of trading and, since then, has seen an average of 800,000 visitors per week. It achieved sales of £500m sales in its first six months. Westfield mall has created 10,000 jobs and attracted shoppers to deprived area of east London Joe Alexander said: 'I'm glad Westfield is there, it's a great local facility for the people of Stratford but you can't help feel it was created more for people from outside to come in, shop and leave without really entering the real Stratford. 'The council operates a free disposal service for bulky waste. There is no excuse for residents dumping mattresses and we will not tolerate this.'

17. This is the original Stratford shopping centre, pre Westfield, it has been shielded from view by leaf structures and has not had the investment that Westfield and the Olympic park have had. The jobless rate in my constituency, Bethnal Green and Bow, remains among the highest in the country, and many are people struggling. Long-term unemployment went up by 26% in 2012, and long-term youth unemployment increased by 55% over the same period. Despite a commitment to ensure that 20,000 Olympics jobs went to residents of the Games' host boroughs, fewer than half (9,700) actually did. And for young people in east London the main concern remains jobs.

18. The DLR has been extended, so locals are better connected. London over ground has been extended into Hackney (old east London line), now an orbital around the city- better cross city connections The crossrail will enable a 10 minute trip from Stratford till central London Stratford international allows quicker journey into Kent and link to channel tunnel
