EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 5. Planning permission was granted in 2014 for the redevelopment of the site known as 3 Sampson House and Ludgate House which is located at the northern end of Blackfriars Road and is further bound by Southwark Street, Hopton Street and the River Thames. The site spans the Blackfriars Thameslink railway viaduct which essentially divides the site into two sections, Sampson House to the east and Ludgate House to the west. 6. The original planning permission was granted with a legal agreement on 28 March 2014 and was valid for three years (planning application reference. 12/AP/3940). The planning permission includes the demolition of the existing Sampson House and Ludgate House buildings and redevelopment of the entire site to provide 489 flats as well as offices, retail (Classes A1-A5), community uses (Class D1) and a gym (Class D2). The approved development includes nine new buildings ranging in height from 5 to 49 storeys. The consent was implemented in 2016 and this was confirmed by way of a Certificate of Lawfulness on 29 March 2017. 7. Subsequent to the original permission a non-material amendment was agreed under application reference 16/AP/2806 which relocated 29 residential units from the Sampson House site to the Ludgate House site. Following this, application 17/AP/2286 approved minor material amendments involving the creation of an additional three floors of office space on the approved building known as Ludgate C whilst reducing office floorspace within the Sampson D building by seven storeys. This application was approved with a Deed of Variation to the original
