About

The Carpenters Estate is a 1960s council housing complex, characterized by its low-rise brick blocks and maisonettes arranged around green courtyards. The area is directly adjacent to the University of East London's Stratford campus, creating a consistent student presence. Its future is subject to a major, long-debated regeneration plan, leaving several of its residential blocks currently vacant and awaiting redevelopment.

Stratford New Town, developed in the same era, features a denser grid of concrete high-rise towers and walk-up blocks. It is anchored by the Stratford Centre, a large indoor mall and transport interchange. The area is defined by its proximity to the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, with its residential streets leading directly to the park's northern perimeter and the former Athletes' Village, now the East Village neighbourhood.
