Agree, nice engaging style. I’d argue though that if the east and west stands at Highbury weren’t listed they’d have been torn down quicker than you can say “Firestone Factory”

Agree :sorted:

And as for Arsenal FC getting "credit" for saving the stands, once they'd sold the site it was nothing to do with them, it will have been the developers. Who as you say, must have been constrained by the conservation listing.

Im amazed its not been developed yet. Housing crisis etc.

Which in turn means it's the pricing
I can see the problem. The approval is for a reasonably low density sensitive housing offer. But the worlds moves fast and any developer looking at the asking price will be looking at the margins and thinking this only works if we max it out…. Which ain’t what they’ve got consent for. Stalemate.

Does the lack of building action here have any impact on our finances or have we effectively wiped our hands clean (with sanitiser) of the site?

Yeah, though it was being used to some extent.
Had a look round 18 months ago. It was fascinating.
I'm swure I read somewhere that their Women's Team are going to play there.

Knocked down now but only recently. Believe they had local club football using it for cup finals etc.
