Leabank Square Map








Following up from many of the comments made during the last Leabank Square Garden Survey - we have finally saved up enough re-cycled material to make our very own........

Leabank Square Map!!!

Made mostly from estate agent for sale signs - the map shows the geography of Leabank Square - as well as loads of useful information for all of us. Things like our community associations chairs, managing agents contact details, what to do if you want to get rid of a bed or sofa, etc.

But the map is designed to be altered & changed easily - so if you have any additional info you may want up there - please send us an email.

Thanks to Dee, Joe & Lauren who have already given us very positive feedback - even before the map was up!!!

Anyway - just in time for the Hackney Wick Festival - please enjoy the latest addition to the Leabank Square Gardens!!

Just what we needed!! Excellent idea!! Perfect pitch of info & humour. If I had just moved into Leabank, this is exactly what I would've loved to've seen. Thanx.

It looks like a work of art as well as a useful info point. This is how I like my art. Thanks for doing this for all of us.

What a lovely idea? All other estates have one, so why not us? I know I'm knitpicking, but can we also have some alternative political parties up there too? How about a local Green & SWP contact as well? I know there's not too much space - but a bit more impartiality might lead to a good thing.

Love it!! The UPS delivery guy loves it as well! He paid you a great compliment while I signed for my parcel a few minutes ago. I think we should have some more of these dotted all over the Wick. But maybe Sweet Toof will get his grubby spaycans all over them.

Thanks guys.

It's a lovely addition to the notice board. Thanks to everyone who made it. I love that it was made out of those horrid estate agent adverts. Thanks

I was one of those who asked for a map in the last garden survey, so thanks for listening. You took your time, but it was well worth the wait mate.

Yeah Nadira & Sóna. Thanks for actually taking our views on board. It's nice to answer questionairs, and to see some results for a change. I cannot think of a single olympic suggestion of mine ever been taken seriously. Let's keep Leabank Square completely independent as long as we can.
Thanks again.

Hi Leabank Square
We visited your lovely square today and were very impressed with this lovely recycled map and notice board. Please could you tell us who made it as we would love one for our cul-de-sac in Homerton. I've added our email, but please could you hide it on the comments section.
Thanks for the swap-shop, we got a lovely mirror for our daughters room.
