I'm hoping for an Apple Store in this space, oh yeah we're nothing like Bromley.

Hilarious. Too much to ask for a Claridges outpost?

Little Waitrose.

Little Waitrose.

Right opposite a Sainsburys local? Oh yeah the cluster effect.

Pretty sure it's going to be entirely residential. Notice of proposed development up outside Zanzibar.

You can now view the application (291 - 307 KIRKDALE, LONDON, SE26 4QZ) on the Lewisham planning website - reference number DC/16/097989

[biscuitman1978]

This is an application for 'prior approval' to convert the office space to residential.

The principle of change of use isn't at issue here, as change of use from office to residential is 'permitted development', provided that the local planning authority is content that:
- The development would not have an unacceptable impact on the transport or highways network
- There are no contamination risks
- There is no risk of flooding
- There would be no unacceptable noise impacts on the intended residential occupants
