Turangalila is the best solution for the vacant 2 Jubilee St
Sign Now
We believe that the best solution for the vacant Tower Hamlets Council building, 2 Jubilee St, is a community solution.
We believe the the best community solution that has been proposed to Tower Hamlets Council is by the organisation Turangalila who are uniquely placed to promote creativity in East London, focused on engaging the young, elderly and those with mental health issues.
2 Jubilee St is a Tower Hamlets Building that has remained vacant since 2007.
In 2008 Turangalila engaged Tower Hamlets and proposed a unique scheme, created by the local community, including local creative professionals and businesses, with the support of partnership groups and community leaders.
This scheme would provide:
- 16 affordable artists/creative industries studios.
- 2 large multi-use spaces for exhibitions, performance and community groups.
- Music, film, soft 3D and hard 3D workshops/studios.
- A healthy affordable cafe with smaller meeting rooms for one to one help, reading programs etc.
Turangalila also sourced creative professionals willing to give their time for a program of skills building workshops aimed at the young, elderly and those with mental health issues.
Turangalila provided Tower Hamlets with architectural plans, works schedule and funding strategy.
Yet 2 Jubilee St remains disused, wasted and vulnerable to anti-social behavior.
We want Tower Hamlets to give Turangalila short, mid term or permanent use of 2 Jubilee St so that our community can have these facilities, resources and to give more people the opportunity to gain skills, experience and the tools to work in the creative industries.

I am a Tower Hamlets resident and support this fully. TH has a large artistic community which contribute greatly to the uniqueness of the borough. This community does need to be nurtured however or it will be lost. This is a great example of how to do it.

I fail to see why the council did not snap this proposal up when it was first put to them. A fabulous scheme and a great use of the space which will benefit the local community. What's not to love?!

nearby resident, feel that the area is in dire need of some sort of creative and social hub as it is something of a backwater.
