In case anyone's interested and in the area the developers of the future TVC are holding a public display of their plans in the main reception of TVC this Tuesday between 2 and 8 and Wednesday between 10 and 8. There'll also be displays on Thursday 4pm - 8pm at Wood Lane Community Centre and on Saturday 10am - 4pm at White City Community Centre.
