The London Borough of Hackney is a north east London Borough inside Inner London in the United Kingdom. Southern and eastern parts of the borough are popularly, but unofficially, regarded as being part of east London, with northern and western locations deemed to belong to north London. The London Plan, issued by the Greater London Authority, assigns whole boroughs to sub-regions for statutory monitoring, engagement and resource allocation purposes. The most recent 2011 iteration of this program assigns Hackney towards the ‘East’ sub-region, even though the 2008 and 2004 versions assigned the borough to ‘North’ and ‘East’ sub-regions respectively. Hackney is bounded by Islington to the west, Haringey to the north, Waltham Forest to the north-east, Newham to the east, Tower Hamlets towards the south-east and also the City of London towards the south-west. It covers a total area of 7.36 square miles. In line with population estimates from 2014, the borough has a permanent population of around 263150 individuals. A lot of Hackney retains an inner-city character, but in such locations as Dalston large housing estates have been joined by newly developed gated communities. The historical and administrative heart of Hackney is the area roughly extending north from Mare Street and surrounding the Church of St John-at-Hackney; called Hackney Central. Towards the east is the big open space of Hackney Marshes along with the districts of Hackney Wick and Homerton. Light industries in the area around the River Lea employ over 3000 individuals. Some of the area was used for the 2012 Summer Olympics.
