In the same week that the Kensal Rise Library campaign announced a 'night of poetry and readings' by famous actors and writers to help raise £100,000 running costs for their community library in the Kensal Rise building, a studio flat in the building went on sale for £475.000.
The studio is one of two in the building along with one one-bedroomed duplex and 2 two bedroomed duplexes.
In pre-redevelopment attempts to sell the whole building, prices asked were between £1,150,000 and £1,120,00.
Along with the Willesden Green Library redevelopment LINK it is clear that the 'Brent Libraries Transformation Strategy' has been very lucrative for developers.
