CGI of the proposed new buildings
Our proposals
There is existing planning consent for two buildings of 68 and 45 storeys, joined by an 11-storey podium that include around 800 new homes and a large amount of office space. We carefully reviewed this existing consent, and between January and March 2023 we consulted on some changes that we felt better reflected the needs of the area. In July 2023 we submitted a new planning application that would. We are now proposing to:
Replace an 11-storey link building with a new green public square at ground floor that is suitable for a range of community uses and events, improves safety and can connect with neighbouring spaces both now and in the future
Deliver co-working space rather than office space, to better cater for the needs of the local community
Create c.800 new homes including homes delivered at Discount Market Rent
Provide space for a small retailer such as a bakery, sandwich or coffee shop
Reduce the heights as well as change the design style of the buildings to help better suit the surrounding context and create a striking landmark for Croydon
Open up the façade of the building along Lansdowne Road with commercial and community space and creating a more attractive street scene
Contribute towards a new street-level crossing across Wellesley Road
Reprovide the locally loved space-themed murals at Voyager House
Enable a safer link to the station, with new CCTV, lighting and a 24-hour concierge
Since submitting our original application, we have been working on some design updates following further consultation with the council and have now submitted an updated application – you can view the details of the changes made here.
