Ambitious plans to regenerate Clapham have been given the go-ahead by Lambeth Planners. The council’s development partner, Cathedral Group, was granted permission for the multi-million pound Clapham One development at a planning committee meeting..
Part of the Future Clapham scheme, the development will deliver new, high quality public facilities for Clapham at no cost to the tax-payer. The scheme will also deliver 199 new homes.
It involves the redevelopment of two sites in Clapham:
Mary Seacole House on Clapham High Street will be re-developed to provide a state-off-the-art community library, healthcare centre and 136 new homes.
Clapham Leisure Centre site will be transformed to create a brand new facility – including a six-lane, 25 metre pool, a 100 station gym and a four-court sports hall – as well as 63 apartments.
The Mary Seacole House development is subject to final approval by the Greater London Authority, a decision is expected by the end of April.
