Can we start an email campaign to save this London landmark from demolition?

I live in London and I've just heard that a really famous indoor antiques market in Islington is being sold off to developers.





It was built in 1850 and has about 50 little shops in it. It's great to walk around in and has loads of good stuff (not dear - I'm poor and I buy stuff there!). The owners want to sell it off for 'redevelopment' and have told the little shopkeepers they are getting evicted.





If you could get all your mates to email the Council in protest, it might just work (doesn't matter where you are in the world - tourists come over specially to visit it) - maybe put it on your Facebook entry!





Here's an article about the mall:

and here is the mall's website:http://www.themallantiques.co.uk/





Please email: planning@islington.gov.uk quoting the reference number P080135.





Thanks a million! (ps. I'm just a customer, not a shopkeeper!)

Hi


I've sent an e-mail 'Is it for the needy or the greedy' with regards to this, you get my vote, my Old Man was a cockney he was born in Bow Road, I also heard growing up that my uncle ran a pub at one end of Bow Road I think it was called 'The Green Man'. I wish you and all concerned good luck with this and a successful outcome.
