It is situated in close proximity to 25 bus routes, as well as the Victoria Line on the London Underground, the Overground and the Chatham Main Line. However, central Brixton can be difficult to navigate. This site will increase permeability in Brixton, opening up the markets to Brixton Station Road. This development will improve access for both the people of Brixton and its visitors, with a new route from Pop Brixton, through the arcades to Brixton Road and the Station. The site does not sit in a conservation area. This will therefore allow for the opportunity to provide new employment and retail space in the heart of Brixton.

  • Trams in Brixton 1870 - 1951
    TRAMS IN BRIXTON 1870 - 1951 Horse Trams Two Acts of Parliament, passed in 1869 and 1870, empowered the Metropolitan Street Tramways Company to construct tramways from the Lambeth end of Westminster Bridge to Brixton and to Clapham. The company got to work quickly; they lost no time in laying down double tracks with rails level with the surface of the road. 2 May 1870 was an important day in Brixton's history. It was the day when the first authorised tramcars operated in London. 1 The new trams ran that day from the Horns Tavern in Kennington Road and along Brixton Road as far as its junction with Stockwell Road. The smart blue tramcars were hauled by two horses. Cars seated 22 persons inside and 24 on the open top deck. The passengers inside sat on red velvet cushions. For top deck passengers were two wooden benches running the length of the tram; these passengers faced outwards. Trams ran every five minutes. The normal fare was a penny a mile but Parliament had required special trams to be run for workmen in the morning and evenings at a halfpenny a mile.2 As soon as the 1870 Act was passed more track laying was rushed on with, and by the end of 1870 trams were in service from the Lambeth end of Westminster Bridge to St Matthew's church, Brixton, and another line ran along Clapham Road to the Swan at Stockwell. During 1871 tramcars had reached the Plough at Clapham, and the Brixton Line had been extended to the junction of Brixton Water Lane.

  • Diverse Effects, Strategies and Perspectives Among Small Migrant Businesses in Gentrifying Brixton
    The multifaceted face of neighbourhood change; diverse effects, strategies and perspectives among small migrant businesses in gentrifying Brixton Maarten Kaptein, 4149319 [email protected] Supervisor: Dr. Ilse van Liempt Word count: 12295 Abstract International migration has been growing and diversifying in recent decades impacting both sending and receiving societies. Among migrants self-employment is a common source of income which is visible in the great number of ethnic businesses in major cities. Gentrification, tourism and place-consumption has been altering the residential and commercial landscapes of cities, not in the least ethnic neighbourhoods. Theory on migrant (or ethnic minority) business considers entrepreneurship to be shaped by the interaction between personal characteristics and well as the institutional and socio-economic context. Whereas many studies on migrant business focus on ethnic groups, this study investigates migrant businesses from various backgrounds in a particular neighbourhood. This approach sheds light on the various effects of neighbourhood change among a variety of migrant businesses. The aim of this study is to investigate the various effects of neighbourhood change on migrant businesses, the adaptive strategies employed by migrant entrepreneurs and the implications of these changes for the neighbourhood in Brixton, London. The data was collected using qualitative methods. Among the various participants neighbourhood change proves to be a challenge as well as a potential opportunity. While some business transform to more mainstream types of business, the future of many of the more traditional ethnic businesses is precarious. Keywords: Migrant entrepreneurship, mixed embeddedness, adaptive strategies, urban transformations, gentrification Introduction International migration has been growing and diversifying in recent decades impacting both sending and receiving societies.

  • Brixton Goes Into Hyperlocal S
    Brixton is fast becoming not only a place to play, but also to work. Its proximity to transport links, ready supply of young professionals and cool nightlife is attracting companies at a pace where demand is outstripping supply. Union Street Partners are actively representing 55,000 sq ft of office space across seven properties in the area and we believe we are at a critical point of opportunity for further redevelopment in the area, especially with the concept of ‘Hyperlocal’ space becoming more important in the post-Covid world. Perhaps surprisingly, the total stock of office space in the Brixton area stands at just over one million square feet but only a fraction of that is high quality, the remainder being secondhand or studio/workshop style. This report looks at the active and current occupiers, what changes are ahead for the area and our view on the impact of Covid-19.
