A campaign was mounted in 2008 by Building Design magazine and the Twentieth Century Society to get Robin Hood Gardens listed as a historical landmark in order to save it from destruction, with support from Richard Rogers and Zaha Hadid ; the latter counts it as her favourite building in London.

The campaign to save Robin Hood Gardens drew very little support from those who actually had to live in the building, with more than 75 % of residents supporting its demolition when consulted by the local authority.

This ministerial decision endorses the recommendation of English Heritage that Robin Hood Gardens is unfit for listing and does not deserve statutory heritage protection, leaving the way open for Tower Hamlets Council to proceed with its demolition and redevelopment.
