Marshall supports the principle of this policy to create great places where people want to live, work and play whilst sustaining the unique characters of Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire. Cambridge East has a significant role to play in the creation of an extraordinary new place that complements and adds to the existing surrounding built development and communities. The creation of great places is embedded at the heart of the vision for Cambridge East and the scale and the significance of the site provides an opportunity to implement place-making. Cambridge East will be a place in itself, complementing the role and services offered by other city quarters – but also a place integrated with and completing the city. Further detail will be developed through the masterplan in collaboration with the GCSP.
