Ealing Council faces heated backlash over plans to demolish Northolt’s historic Post Office and replace it with a massive five-story self-storage complex—despite developer tweaks like adding retail space, privacy screens, and traffic calming measures. Over 100 locals oppose the scheme, arguing it doesn’t serve the community and could worsen congestion; councilor Chris Summers agrees, suggesting storage should be near major roads like the A40. While developers pledged £400k in local contributions for affordable workspace and air quality, the core remains self-storage—with the council’s planning committee leaning toward approval, though housing options remain uncertain.
