A former Victorian warehouse in Stratford has been given a new lease of life as two creative organisations prepare to move in.
The Talent House, set in the refurbished historic building with a modern extension, will become home to East London Dance (ELD) and urban music organisation UD in the autumn.
It is part of the Dane’s Yard creative quarter within the Sugar House Island development by Vastint UK.

Manchester Jewish Museum is to reopen on 2 July, following the completion of its £6m redesign and extension project.
Supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund with a £3m grant, the project has been a two-year job, and the re-presented museum will feature a gallery, café, shop and learning studio and kitchen as well as the restoration of its 1874 Spanish and Portuguese synagogue, the oldest surviving synagogue in the city.
The lead architect for the scheme is Citizens Design Bureau. HH Smith is the main contractor, with the professional team including Buro Happold, Smithers Purslow, Appleyard & True, Brittain & Co and Flick Harris. All Things Studio is responsible for exhibition design
