Introductory notes

The neighbourhood around King’s Cross Central will be important to the future occupants of King’s Cross Central, just as it is to its own present occupants. The Forum therefore considers major proposals for the whole neighbourhood, such as those related to King’s Cross Station.

The community bulletin board for the whole neighbourhood has more day-to-day concerns than this web site but provides occasional news about the King’s Cross Central development.
