I FIND it difficult to understand the objections to the proposed development by McLean Homes on the site of the bus depot/Brand Centre in Whitefield.
This area is a complete eyesore and has been for several years. The last thing we need is another "Elms Centre" situation, which resulted in a blot for many years.
The proposed McLean development is attractive, secure, in line with modern living, and a vast improvement on the current, non-existent facilities.
These objectors need to remind themselves that we are living in the 21st century and Whitefield needs initiatives such as this and the new Elms, otherwise it will decline into becoming the poorest of neighbours to Prestwich, Bury and Manchester.
