Cranbrook Estate

The Cranbrook Estate is a housing estate in Bethnal Green, East London designed by Berthold Lubetkin.

The site, which is east of Bonner Street and north of Roman Road, was called Cranbrook after the central street. "Terraced houses, workshops, and one large factory were replaced by a figure of eight called Mace Street, which echoed the diagonals of the street pattern to the north."[1] The first blocks were opened in 1963.
