Elephant & Castle Masterplan

London, UK

We were appointed by Lend Lease to work alongside Make Architects to develop a masterplan for outline planning. Our brief was to deliver a vibrant mix of new homes, shops, business and community facilities, set in a network of open spaces including a new public park. This major transformation aims to help Elephant & Castle regain its place as a thriving and vibrant urban quarter of London. Outline planning permission was granted in January 2013 after consultation with the local community.
