22 storey tower for Seven Sisters

News of this may have already found its way onto HoL, but in case it hasn't, here is the news:

Apex House, the unlovely redbrick building at the junction of Seven Sisters Road and Tottenham High Road, is due to be demolished and replaced by a 22 storey tower block of mostly private-sale flats.  Not surprisingly, the developer is Grainger, as in slash-and-burn plans for Wards Corner, the adjacent building.  They have been gifted the site for £3.4 million, ie about the price of three houses in Muswell Hill.

This is, AFAIK, the first proposed building of this height in Haringey.  The Tottnm Hale towers are about 15 storeys.  Precedent?

I've blogged some stuff on the SoTo site:

Note in particular that last note, a pre-planning 'advisory' meeting with the Planning Committee, next Tuesday 10th March, at the Civic Centre.  The Agenda and reports pack for this meeting can be viewed on the Council’s website here:

Those of us who live literally in the possible shadow, will be there to offer some advice.
