COMMERCIAL STREET

CommercialStreet isa roadin Spitaleldsthat runsnorth to south from Shoreditch High Streetto WhitechapelHigh Streetthrough the EastEnd districtof Spitalelds.As the name implies,Commercial Streethas historically been dominatedby industrialand commercialactivity.Itis on the City fringes,and much industry thatwas seen astoo noisome forthe City wasonce exiledto such areasas this.However, since the early 1990sthe streethasgrown increasingly more fashionable

Untilthe late twentieth century,the streetwas heavily dominatedby the activitiesof Spitaleldswholesale fruitand vegetable market,andby outlets forthe 'rag trade'(the wholesale clothing andtextile trade).Since the mid-1970s,however,the areahas been increasingly subjectto aprocessof gradualgentrication. In part,thisreects the changing characterof Spitaleldsmore generally,butin CommercialStreet in particularitwas stimulatedby the departure of the marketin 1991 (andsubsequentredevelopmentof itsbuildings), the arrivalof anumber

of private residentialdevelopments(especially atthe northern endof the street),and the introduction of some modesttrac-calming measures.Many of the commercialunitsin the streetare now occupiedby fashionable clothing shopsor restaurants..

The streetis home to some historicalbuildings,notably, ChristChurch, the OldSpitaleldsMarket andthe Ten Bellspub[ connectionsto Jack the Ripper] andneareststati onsare Liverpool Streeton the west, Shoreditch High Streetnorth of the streeta ndAlgate Easto n the south.

CURRYCAPITAL RESEARCHby Sean Carey

Thisresearch hasexamined the pattern of developmentand

segmentation within the catering sectorin the Brick Lane area.Some of

the more signicantndings of the study are summarised:

In TowerHamlets,changes in householdstructuresand patternsof

retailconsumption amongstmembers of the Bangladeshicommunity,as wellas the signicantopportunities to be derived

from the dramaticgrowth in Londonsnew night-time economy

since the late 1990s,hasled to amajor increase in the numberof

restaurantsand cafsserving IndianandBangladeshi foodin theBrick Lane area.In 2003 there were 46 catering o utlets,which

meantthat Banglatown washome to the largestnumberof

Indian/Bangladeshirestaurantsanywhere in the UK.

Bangladeshiso wnedthe overwhelming majority (88%)of catering

businessesin the Brick Lane area.Some 400 sta wasin routine

full- orpart-time employment,although only four(1%) were female.Thiscompared unfavourably with Chinatown where approximately

40% of the 2,500 employeeswere female.

There hasbeen a signicantdecline in the numberof customersvisiting the Brick Lane areaat lunchtime during the working week.

While some of thiscan be accountedforby an upsurge in coee

barsand sandwich outletson the City fringe aswellasthe food

courtatSpitaleldsMarket,itwasalso evidentthatrestaurantsinBanglatown have notkeptpace with changesin fashion andstyle in

the newdaytime South Asian foodmarket exploitedby outletssuch

asMasala Zone,Mela andthe fastexpanding tiffinbiteschain.

These outletswere foundto oer awide and eclecticvariety ofcompetitively pricedfast-casuallunchtime options,often focused

on healthy eating,to localoffice workers.

The research also revealedamarked tendency forrestaurants (but

notcafs) in the Brick Lane areato experience long periodsof

inactivity followedby asurge in customerdemandtowardst he end

of the week (typically Thursdays,Fridaysa ndSaturdays).T hispattern wasqualitatively dierentfrom thatfound in some outlets

serving Indian foodin the WestEndwhich reporteda much more

evenly balancedtrade throughoutthe working week andatthe

weekend.These restaurantshave achievedthisprimarily throughsubtle andintelligentmarketing using creative andengaging

conceptsandnarrati vesas wellas promotionaliniti ativessuch as

foodfestivals.This strategy hasallowedthese businessestochallenge the widely heldperception amongstmany consumersthat

going outfor acurry isa ritualisticand celebratory activity in which

to indulge only atthe end of the working week.Instead,these

outletshave succeededin making Indiancuisine an everyday foodchoice forat leastsome middle-classLondoners.

Consumers who usedrestaurantsin the Brick Lane areawere

drawn from awell-educatedmiddle-classgroupo ften living orworking locally with aclear majority (70%)in the 2534 age range.

Itshould be notedthat thisage-set willdecline in numbersin the

nearfuture with the 3544 and5564 age-groupsset to experiencethe largestgrowth.Increasedcompetition between dierentareas

of London to caterfor the high-spending middle-class2534 age

groupis likely to become more pronounced.Additionally,the

demandfor restaurantservicesi sexpectedto rise lessquickly thanhasbeen the case in the lastdecade, although thiswillbe offset, to

some extent,by astrengthening of the under20 perheadfood

marketwhich the catering sectorin the Brick Lane areaiswell

positionedto exploit.

CHRIST CHURCH

ChristChurch,S pitaleldsis an Anglican church builtbetween 1714 and1729 to adesign by NicholasHawksmoor.Situated on CommercialStreet, in the London Borough of TowerHamlets,on the eastern borderandfacing the City of London,it wasone of the rst(and arguably one of the nest)of the so-called"Commissioners'Churches" builtfor the Commission forBuilding Fifty NewChurches,which hadbeen establishedby an

Actof Parliamentin 1711.

The purpose of the Commission wasto acquire sitesandbuild fty newchurchesto serve Londonsnew settlements.Thisparish was carvedout of the huge medievalStepney parish foran area then dominatedbyHuguenots(French Protestantsandother 'dissenters'who owedno allegiance to the Church of Englandand thusto the King)asa showof Anglican authority.Some Huguenotsusedit forbaptisms, marriagesand burials

butnot foreveryday worship,preferring their own chapels(theirchapels were severely plain comparedwith the bombasticEnglish Baroque style of ChristChurch) though increasingly they assimilatedinto English life and

Anglican worshipwhich wasin t he eighteenth century relatively plain.

The Commissionersfort he newchurchesincludedChristopher Wren,ThomasArcher andJohn Vanbrugh appointedtwo surveyors,o ne of whom wasNicholasHawksmoor. Only twelve of the plannedfty

churcheswere built,of which six were designedby Hawksmoor.

The architecturalcomposition of ChristChurch demonstratesH awksmoorsusualabruptness: the very plain rectangularbox of the nave issurmountedat itswest endby a broadtower of three stages

toppedby asteeple more Gothicthan classical.The magnicentporch with itssemicircular pedimentandTuscan columnsisattached bluntly to the westend: itmay indeedbe alate addition to

the design intendedto addfurther supportto the tower.Like those of Hawksmoorsother London churchesandmany of Wrens,the centralspace isof the nave isorganisedaround two axes,the

shorteroriginally emphasisedby two entrancesof which only thatto the south remains.It hasa richly decoratedat ceiling andis litby aclerestory.The aislesare roofedwith ellipticalbarrel-vaultscarriedon araised Composite order(cf. WrensStJames's, Piccadilly), andthe same orderis usedfor the screensacrossthe eastand westends.The Venetian windowat the eas

may showthe growing inuence of the revivalof Palladian Architecture,or itmay be arhyme with the archedpedimentof the entrance portico,repeated in the wide

main stage of the tower.The eastwindow isa double window,one inside,one outside,the eectnow obscuredby the Victorian stainedglasswindow between the two.
