    Hastings Borough Council does not have any social housing, they were all transferred to 1066 Housing Association (now Optivo) in 1996 as a large scale voluntary transfer (LSVT).

    There are 4 tower blocks which are over 18 storeys but they are owned and managed by Optivo:

    Four Courts which comprises of:
