We are consulting on a new planning application for New City Court which has now been submitted to Southwark Council.

In 2017, we began consulting on earlier proposals for the redevelopment of New City Court, and submitted a planning application (Ref: 18/AP/4039) to the London Borough of Southwark in December 2018. To date, a decision has not been made on this application.

We still believe in the merits of the existing application, to which there are significant benefits for the local area that were been supported throughout our extensive consultation.

However, to progress development on this site whilst delivering a highly sustainable, well-designed building, we have taken the decision to progress a new application that was submitted in Spring 2021.

Our new proposal will still look to provide the key public benefits of the previous scheme, whilst making some alterations:

• Improved sustainability and net zero-carbon credentials
• A significant reduction in height
• Re-designed flexible workspaces with post-pandemic work habits in mind
• A significant increase in affordable workspace
• A vibrant and publicly accessible rooftop garden space
• A revised servicing strategy in line with feedback
