The planning application remains under review while I continue to correspond with the council regarding the unique value of these workshops. I appreciate the personal accounts many of you have shared about the role Portland Works plays in our local economy.

The momentum behind this effort has grown into a powerful testament to the value of our community. It is clear that the preservation of Portland Works is a priority for many who recognize the importance of these specialized industries.

We need skilled trades in this city, not more tiny flats. Hands off Portland Works.
dont let them destroy the workshops!! those businesses have been there for ages. its just not right.
This is absolute madness. Those workshops are the heart of the area. Leave them be!
so sad to see this happen to such a cool space. hope the council actually listens for once.
Keep history alive instead of just building more pointless apartments nobody can afford anyway. Portland Works is a massive part of our city.
