There Goes the Neighbourhood: Gentrification Hell [electronic resource].

Full Unemployment Cinema 2014

Open access content

Concrete Heart Land / Bleacher on the Rye – Gentrification Double Bill Friday 30 May | 7PM | Cinema6 Full Unemployment Cinema and Southwark Notes present an evening of films and presentations around the politics and economics of gentrification and ‘regeneration’ in south London. While in the midst of a widely acknowledged housing crisis London also seems to be in the grip of a malign spiral of development that threatens to displace many working class people from ‘their’ city. This process is exemplified by the recent ‘regeneration’ of the Heygate Estate in Elephant and Castle that has led to the eviction and dispersal of long term tenants, a protracted struggle by leaseholders to secure equitable compensation and the eventual building of a private housing development with almost no social housing.
