"Plans to build 400 new homes and a shopping area could turn Hendon into a 'concrete jungle'.

"This week developer NEAT Developments held a public exhibition to showcase its proposals to build on a site between Rookery Way and Edgware Road in The Hyde.

"There is currently a Homebase and a second-hand car sales lot on the site, which NEAT wants to redevelop in spring 2016.

"As well as approximately 390 flats, there will be no more than ten houses, and between 280 and 300 parking spaces."
