An art studio in Hackney Wick set for demolition faces it’s last chance to survive.

Campaigners fighting to save the arts studio in Hackney from demolition are now locked in talks with Government officials.

The Hackney Wick arts studio, which is home to one of the largest artistic communities in London, is set to be demolished to make way for two apartment blocks and a footbridge that will improve connections for 1,500 people.

But opposition to the redevelopment has been strong, as several artists want to keep the space which has been a key part of the local culture for years.
