This Week in Astor // 29 Jun–5 Jul 2026
1,411 new applications filed across 32 boroughs; Westminster, Leeds and Barnet lead
We saw a busy week in our records, with 1,411 fresh applications logged between Monday and Sunday. Alongside the volume, we shipped a suite of navigation and watchlist updates that flatten your route to active deals and at-risk property.
In short
1,411 planning applications landed this week across 32 boroughs in our records, with Westminster, Leeds and Barnet the busiest. 202 were approved, 27 refused. We consolidated your watchlist into a live activity feed within the main planning view, merged navigation into three core sections, and opened property reads to free users with a daily cap.
What we shipped
The planning dashboard is now a single unified view: your watchlist folds into a live activity feed rather than sitting as a separate table, and the sidebar collapses Planning Checker, Map and Places into one logical group. You can now spot risk signals—new exceptions, matched properties, marked applications—in one place without tab-hopping. We also opened the property read to free users with a daily fresh-read cap, and added conservation data to every property card on the map.
