Don't know about phoenix phase 2, there's no mention of that on the HBC web site but that's not surprising since nothing on HBC web site is up to date. It all smacks of the late 60's early 70's where good houses were demolished to make way for those tower blocks, another Architects dream. If they are prepared to pay for the houses so they can demolish, why can that money not be put towards refurbishing those houses, its got to be a cheaper option than demolish and rebuild. Why destroy communities that have been there for many years.
