Was converted to the Ocean music venue. Now disused, but Ocean may soon be back in business due to Arts Council funding...

	Fin Fahey says: It's all a bit murky, like much of what goes down in Hackney. But there is also a simple commercial reality, which is that it's a moderately large venue to fill, but you have to work pretty hard to promote a venue that doesn't have a tube station somewhere nearby. The Empire can barely hack it, and it is something of a tourist pull. Posted 28 months ago. ( permalink )
	Dan K ™ says: There is unlikely ever to be a tube station really 'near' this venue eh. Posted 28 months ago. ( permalink )
	Fin Fahey says: It's not completely impossible, if the old 'Chelney Line' plans ever get dusted off again. But wouldn't hold my breath, 2020 at the earliest... Posted 28 months ago. ( permalink )
