Landsec gets green light for Lewisham Shopping Centre redevelopment plans
Landsec has secured a resolution to grant planning permission for the phased redevelopment of Lewisham Shopping Centre in South London.
The proposals include a permanent home for Lewisham’s Model Market, a 500-capacity culture, music, and arts venue, and new green public space.
In addition, the redevelopment is set to deliver a reimagined shopping centre alongside over 1,700 new homes, 660 student beds, and 445 co-living residencies.
Landsec said the plans have been carefully phased to retain key parts of the shopping centre, minimising disruption for local residents, guests and brand partners, while also maintaining income and ensuring community benefits are realised as early as possible.
Mike Hood, chief operating officer of Landsec, said: “This is an exciting moment for the future of Lewisham’s town centre. These plans provide much-needed homes, community spaces and facilities that will enhance urban life for generations, while delivering sustainable returns that support our ambition for long-term growth.”
