Appendix 9 Major Projects update 1.1 Regeneration of the Vauxhall and Nine Elms areas. A public inquiry into the Northern Line Extension is now underway. If the scheme is approved, construction could commence in 2015 with the Council contributing £7.3m to the cost. London Underground has already started work on a £37million refurbishment of Vauxhall underground station. 1.2 The Council is working closely with TfL to pursue its aspiration of restoring a two way road network in place of the Gyratory at Vauxhall and a stakeholder group has been established to oversee the process. Two viable options are being modelled and consultation and engagement is intended to start in early 2014. 1.3 Construction is underway on the Tinworth Mews site, and the demolition is beginning of Eastbury and Hampton House. Full planning permission has now been issued for the Sainsbury site. The BT owned Keybridge House is to be submitted to planning Committee in January. Construction is progressing on the Damien Hirst gallery at the north of the Vauxhall Area, heralding the ‘Gallery Quarter’. 1.4 Regeneration of Waterloo. A number of significant applications are currently being assessed including South Bank Festival Wing, Hercules House Park Plaza and 600 student Oasis Academy. The new Shell headquarters building is currently undergoing a Public Enquiry and a decision is expected in March 2014. Elizabeth House was subject to a High Court decision and it is now anticipated a full Public Enquiry will begin in March 2014. While this situation is a setback, optimism remains and these and other proposals are critical to the regeneration of the area. The Garden Bridge proposal is currently in pre-application consultation and an application is anticipated in Spring 2014. 1.5 Other projects underway include the IMAX roundabout which is in first phase modelling and options assessment; the £280m Waterloo Station Master Plan has been commissioned, outcomes are expected in March 2014; a partnership approach to Archbishop’s Park Capital Works has been developed in conjunction with urbanest who are constructing a 1,600 student led scheme on Westminster Bridge Road. 1.6 The final Waterloo Steering Committee Delivery Plan is due on 5 December and in conjunction with Council’s CIL infrastructure plan will guide priorities aimed at meeting Council outcomes and the Waterloo SPD vision in the coming years. 1.7 Central Brixton. The Brixton SPD was adopted by the Council in June 2013. This sets out a framework for regeneration across the town centre. The Council is taking forward three major regeneration schemes. 1.8 At November 2013 Cabinet, Muse Developments were selected as the preferred development partner for the Your New Town Hall project. Further detail on this project is provided separately below. 1.9 The procurement of a development manager for the Somerleyton Road project also started in November 2013. This is a housing-led mixed-use scheme which includes the proposed relocation of the Oval House Theatre. 1.10 The Council has now embarked on a jointly funded masterplan with Network Rail for the Brixton Central area, including the former Pope's Road car park site. Co- 1 production of the masterplan will begin in early 2014. An overarching public realm strategy is being developed. Skills, employment and enterprise support is also being worked up in parallel with development proposals. 1.11 Your New Town Hall. From 2015/16 Your New Town Hall will deliver up to 275 new homes, up to 800 new jobs and up to 14,000 sqm of new, fit for purpose customer facilities and offices. This will be achieved through the reduction of Lambeth’s existing office infrastructure from 14 to just 2 main sites and in doing so will save at least £4.5million per year. The project is projected to be self-financing through the development of surplus office sites which means it will not cost Lambeth taxpayers anything. 1.12 The project is not simply a redevelopment of the town hall but is the development of a 2.5 acre site in the heart of Brixton. It will see the opening–up of the town hall for the whole community and local businesses to access and share through a wide variety of different community spaces. 1.13 The Your New Town Hall project team is continuing to make the earliest possible revenue savings through the ongoing rationalisation of office space throughout 2014/15, following on from the successful move out of Town Hall Parade in February/March 2013 and the release of Hopton House at 31 Dec 2013. 1.14 Black Cultural Archives. The Black Cultural Archives project remains on target for completion in March 2014. This project will see the investment of £5.6m funding from a variety of partners (including the Heritage Lottery Fund, the GLA and Biffa) in Raleigh Hall, Brixton to provide a state of the art facility that will house their collection of archives. The Council is itself contributing £500k to the capital costs of the project. The development will also include an exhibition space, a reading room and interactive learning areas which will allow 40,000 visitors each year to access this important national heritage resource. 1.15 West Norwood Health and Leisure centre. This PFI scheme is in the final 9 weeks of a 2 year construction programme and is due to open to the public by the end of March 2014. It will provide much needed health and leisure services together with an improved quality of open space. It will enable an integrated approach to health and well-being in an area recognized as being deprived and aims to tackle inequalities and encourage healthier behaviour whilst building a stronger community. 1.16 The building will consist of a customer service centre, community meeting venues, dance studio, gym and swimming pool. It will also provide NHS GP and other health and well-being services including provisional free dental care from Kings College Hospital. 1.17 Streatham Leisure and Ice. The new leisure centre opened on 18th November 2013 following the substantial investment of £19.96m by the Council over the last 5 years. This fantastic new facility has a state of the art skating rink and a superb new gym and suite of fitness rooms. This development was achieved in partnership with Tesco. 1.18 Myatt’s Field North estate regeneration. This PFI scheme is part-way through a 5 year construction and refurbishment programme. The result of a close partnership 2 between the council, local residents and Regenter, the project will deliver 808 new homes and refurbish 172 more, along with new streets, play areas and a community centre. Following construction and refurbishment, Regenter will manage all the council houses and community spaces for 20 years. 1.19 Regenter aims to employ local residents for 50% of the jobs on the project. They are offering training opportunities with positions as management trainees, apprenticeships and mentoring placements with consortium partners. 3 .

    Black Georgians

    Subject Guide Black Georgians Ref. Wong/6/98 Ref. AN/3 Ref. EPHEMERA/292 Background The Georgian period covers the years 1714 to 1837, from the reign of King George I, the great grandson of King James I, through to the end of King William IV’s reign. For some, the Georgian period extends only until 1830, finishing with the death of King George IV. This subject guide, however, recognises the regency of King George IV’s brother, King William IV, which ended with his death in 1837. In 1837, Queen Victoria ascends to the throne, ending the Georgian period and introducing the Victorian period. The Georgian period was a time of immense growth and change in Britain, a pivotal point in British history. The emergence of Industrialisation during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries changed the landscape and economy of Britain forever, through the introduction of steam engines, large-scale production factories, and the development of a new network of canals.1 During the eighteenth century, there were a number of pioneering individuals who worked relentlessly as abolitionists, poets, political leaders, and radicals. They actively challenged prevailing notions of white supremacy and the system of enslavement that, until then, was dominating British consciousness. A number of these individuals published first- person testimonies relating the horrors of enslavement. These forcefully drew attention to a trade that many in Georgian society were unable to fully comprehend. These prevailing notions of white supremacy were challenged in all aspects of British society, through the arts, politics and sports. Whilst there were a number of prominent figures leading and shaping the campaign for racial equality in Georgian Britain, there were a larger number of more “everyday” Black Georgians, working particularly as domestic servants.

We have explored individual and collective ambitions. We have recognised the challenges and how we might achieve success. Now we have the foundation and commitment to make Lambeth the next destination and, in time, leader for London’s creative and digital economy. Lambeth Council has a pivotal role to play in growing the sector. It has a unique opportunity. We welcome, encourage and work in partnership with businesses and we expect that collaboration to benefit our community.

    Museums-And-Migration-2009-17

    1 PREFACE This report was completed just before publication of the Mendoza Review of museums in England. Mendoza’s recommendation that the first call on public funding should be existing institutions and collections formed in the past is understandable, yet concerning for a sector that aims to respond actively to social change. The museum sector needs innovation. This Migration Museum Project report argues that migration is already a powerful generator of innovation for museums but has the energy to do so much more in future. The pilot Migration Museums Network indicates what might be achieved: a new model of a ‘national museum network’ in the 21st century - driven from the margins rather than the centre; new thinking about how ‘museum partnerships’ and ‘dispersed national collections’ might work co- operatively. The Migration Museum Project is a small yet agile organisation which strives to deliver museum outcomes through creative thinking and practical action. Its call for a national museum of migration is not about a single institution, but about strategic innovation that recognises existing strengths alongside the possibility of doing things differently. ABOUT THE AUTHORS Dr Cathy Ross is Honorary Research Fellow at the Museum of London, where she worked until 2013 as Director of Collections and Learning. More recently she curated the new museum for the London Charterhouse, and has undertaken research projects for the Centre for Philanthropy at the University of Kent and the Islington charity, Cloudesley. She has published widely on museums and London. Books include London: the Illustrated History, (Penguin, 2008); Designing Utopia: John Hargrave and the Kibbo Kift (Philip Wilson, 2015); Revealing the Charterhouse (Giles Ltd, 2016).
