The most popular part of the week's relaunch was probably a talk by Dan Cruikshank- a local resident and a well known architect and historian. His talk to a packed hall was on the changing face of the east End and in particular Spitalfields. He described the assault on the area by the City and stated his opposition to the demolition of the Fruit Exchange building In Brushfield Street and Commercial street. Apparently English Heritage does not really put up any opposition. 
It seems that Spitalfields is going to change drastically in the next few years unless we go into a deeper recession
