Green spaces at famous Park Hill flats under threat

I hope it’s appropriate to post this here - apologies in advance if not.

You may know Park Hill flats for being included in TV shoots for shows such as Dr Who - and the status as a controversial icon of brutalist urban architecture (also a listed building as of 1998, making it the largest listed building in Europe!).

The apartment buildings are in a location central to the city of Sheffield in England.

There are now proposals to increase the number of car parking spaces, seemingly without much consultation and as a means to generate profits, in opposition to local plans to extend the Peak District, protect green spaces, promote Sheffield as “an outdoors city,” and prevent flash flooding.

There is now a drive to build greater opposition to these proposals, from residents (local and beyond), who have put together more information here: docs.google.com/document/d/…/mobilebasic

We can’t keep letting this happen!
