Planning History

The regeneration principle was established with Lewisham LPA around 2002 and has been delivered through a series of detailed planning applications and phased demolition of the existing estate and smaller associated sites. A detailed pre-application process with officers, LBL Design Panel and other stakeholders has been used at each stage to develop the detail of each phase, which has given the opportunity for lessons to be learnt from each stage and for the detail design and mix to respond to changes in funding and design & planning standards as well as changes in regulations.
