Depends what they build! Change can be hard, but it is sometimes necessary for improving and evolving into something better. Although it would suck if they simply built even more "low cost" housing. Capitalism eh.

hitchin's already changed enough. and too many people use pinehill for walking there dogs to friends meeting to enjoy the weather. Hitchin used to be a riley nice old town but now where ever i look theres flats or something being knocked down. leave hitchin as it is!

When i was younger me and my mates played football and socialised at Pinehill field for years, lots of good memories. Now my younger sister and her friends are at the age i was and still go there to chill out and meet friends. my mum has walked her dog there for years with other mums. For generations its been a key area for sports, socialising, walking dogs and so forth.. destroying Pinehill would be like destroying Windmill hill.
