East London data centre sparks local concern

The UK government approved a £500 million redevelopment of the Truman Brewery estate in Brick Lane, east London, to include a data centre, offices, and apartments, despite opposition from Tower Hamlets council and community groups. The decision, made by housing secretary Angela Rayner, overturned the council’s approved plan for 350 homes and a community-oriented development, citing concerns about feasibility and urban character. Campaigners criticized the move, fearing it will damage local housing needs and community cohesion, and raised environmental concerns about the data centre’s water use.
