=Dance of defiance at market= Haringey Independent (Friday 5th October 2007)


 * A Latin American festival featuring folk dancing, music and food, was staged at Seven Sisters Market, in Wards Corner, on Sunday, to show potential developers how important the area is to residents.

The event, co-ordinated by market traders, was an act of defiance after news the site would be part of a formal planning application in November.

Developer Grainger hopes to build 180 residential units, 50,000 sq ft of retail and leisure outlets and a public square. The market is not included in the plans.

Concerned traders and residents want to safeguard the building that houses the market, which is recognised in Haringey Council's development brief as having 'architectural merit'. || ||
