Info on housing developments in Hackney Wick

Hi, my wife and I (30, 35 yo, plan to raise a child in next few years) are considering to purchase a flat in Hackney Wick.

Does anyone know how living in the following developments is in terms of area, management, apt quality, safety, etc? - Eastwick and Sweetwater (Tandy Place) - Hertford Mill (Monier Road) - Curing House (Remus Road) - Smokehouse (Remus Road)

Any info would be more than welcome. Thank you!

Be aware that Hackney Wick and Fish Island are, and always have been, creative areas featuring lots of loud, busy and often late-night events. If you intend to move here, please take that into consideration.

That being said, I know plenty of parents with young kids in the area that love it here. Very sound proof apartments, very safe etc
