No. The possibility of something like "Future Sydenham" remains, but neither those involved with it or the Sydenham Assembly co-ordinators felt that funding via the Assembly was a good way to proceed.
I guess that's the problem with democracy. We can't always get what we want. I understand the Mosaic and other funding was voted for by those members of the public present at the Assembly.

There are more problems than that, but as Churchill once remarked, it's better than the alternatives.
Hi Annie, I think you misread what I wrote. I said they had a nice Town Centre Manager (which she is, being a town centre manager can be a thankless task at times), I didn't say Penge was a nice town centre, I agree with you, it does look unloved.
