Mayor of London Boris Johnson has brought east London's largest brownfield site to the market for redevelopment.

| Beam Park Area |
The 70-acre Beam Park site in Dagenham was formerly part of the former Ford car plant, which ceased manufacturing in 2002.
Johnson has also rubber-stamped a final new planning framework for Vauxhall, Nine Elms and Battersea which will see 16,000 homes and up to 25,000 jobs created.
The mayor said: "These two prime locations have the potential for great returns for investors as well as supporting thousands of jobs and driving growth across the capital.
"We have already seen how major investment in our infrastructure from the 2012 Games has transformed east London, and is already attracting great interest from investors from around the world."
