Applicant: LBC Housing Development & Regeneration Agent: Turley Case Officer: Graham Harrington 2 BACKGROUND 2.1 This proposed development is being reported to enable Members of the Planning Committee to comment upon it before a planning application is submitted. The emerging scheme does not constitute an application for planning permission and any comments made on it are provisional and subject to full consideration of any subsequent application, including the comments received as a result of consultation etc. 2.2 This is the first presentation to Planning Committee of emerging proposals for the Fairfield Masterplan Area (hereafter referred to as “the Area”). The purpose is to give the Members an early opportunity to comment on proposals that the Council (as a developer) is bringing forward. 2.3 Planning policy is established by the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), the London Plan (2015), the Croydon Local Plan Strategic Policies (CLP1), the saved policies in the Croydon Replacement UDP (CRUDP) and the emerging Croydon Local Plan: Detailed Policies (Preferred and Alternative Options 2013) (CLP2). The area is within the Croydon Metropolitan Centre (CMC) and is also within the London Plan Croydon Opportunity Area (COA). It is also identified as being within the Fair Field Masterplan Area, an Area of High Density and an Archaeological Priority Zone. 2.4 The Croydon Opportunity Area Planning Framework (2013) (OAPF) provides guidance for the COA as a whole and the Fair Field Masterplan (2012) (the Masterplan) provides area-specific guidance. 3 PROPOSAL AND LOCATION DETAILS Proposal 3.1 The applicant has divided the area into six Development Zones as shown on the plan below. It is intended to submit a ‘hybrid’ planning application, where parts of the proposals are in outline form and parts are in detail. Those parts of the site that would be subject to detailed proposals are the Fairfield Halls, College Green and the multi-storey car park (parts of Zones 03 and 05). The rest of the area would be the subject of outline proposals. All matters would be reserved for the outline element, with the applicant proposing that future reserved matters applications would be informed by (a) a series of parameter plans which define minimum and maximum building envelopes, the range of uses and quantum of uses within each zone or part of a zone; (b) development guidelines; and (c) illustrative masterplan and landscape masterplan. 3.2 The form and nature of the application is under discussion with the Local Planning Authority (LPA), including the scope of plans and documents that are proposed to be submitted for approval and for information in relation to the outline element of a planning application. These elements have not yet been agreed. 3.3 Whilst identified as a Development Zone, the main Croydon College building is not included in the emerging scheme at present. However, the applicant is investigating the potential for a new College campus in a new, smaller (in terms of floorspace) and more efficient building elsewhere in the Area and has identified land at the rear of Fairfield Halls and existing College Annex as a potential location for such a new building. The applicant is considering what alternative uses might be viable for Zone 06 if the main College building were to be converted or re-developed. 3.4 The proposed Development Zones are identified in the plan below. 3.5 The current proposal is to demolish all existing buildings within the area except for the Fairfield Halls (Zone 05) and the main College site (Zone 06) and to redevelop the resultant sites. The applicant sets out a range and quantum of proposed uses for all of the Zones except Zone 06. Taken together, this would allow for between approx. 176,500sqm and 201,000sqm (GEA) of development across Zones 01 to 05. Within this, the following range of uses are proposed: • A1/A2/A3 (Shops/financial & professional services/restaurants & cafes); • B1 (Office, research & development & light industry); • C1 (Hotels); • C3 (Dwellings); • D1 (Non-residential Institutions); and • D2 (Assembly & leisure). 3.6 Vehicular access arrangements ass follows: • College Road retained to provide access to adjoining sites and College East; • Phase 1 housing on multi-storey car park site (Zone 03) to be accessed via the Barclay Road car park ramp (reduced from four to two lanes). Emergency and occasional controlled maintenance to be at ground level via a new route between Fairfield Halls and the Courts building; • Phase 2 housing on multi-storey car park site and the Courts building and new D1 space at the rear of Fairfield Halls (Zones 03 and 04) to be accessed via the Barclay Road car park ramp. Emergency and occasional controlled maintenance to be via the ramp and College Road and a podium level route between Fairfield Halls and the Courts building; and • Existing Hazeldean Road vehicle access across railway bridge to be stopped up. 3.7 Pedestrian and cycle access at ground level would be via College Road, College Walk, Hazeldean Road railway bridge (with new stairs and lift) and new north-south routes between George Street and Barclay Road that would be created through redevelopment of the College Annex and Courts building. 3.8 The emerging scheme currently identifies proposed building footprints and the extent of public realm (including limits of deviation) in each Development Zone and minimum width assurances in relation to Zone 02. 3.9 The applicant has also identified minimum and maximum buildings heights for all Zones except Zones 05 (Fairfield Halls) and Zone 06 (the main College building) in terms of metres Above Ordnance Datum (sea level). Minimum and maximum storey heights above ground will vary depending on the use and design of individual buildings, but are indicated as follows: • Zone 01: 7 to 9-storeys; • Zone 02: 13 to 28-storeys; • Zone 03: 4 to 21-storeys; and • Zone 04: 4 to 8-storeys.

Croydon is already one of Europe’s largest commercial centres, but the completion of Ruskin Square, with up to 1,250,000 square feet of new, grade A office space, 625 contemporary new homes, retail, cafés and restaurants will take the area to a whole new level. You might want to travel from Ruskin Square to central London. You may need to head out to Gatwick Airport. Whichever way you’re going, just allow 20 minutes. That’s how connected Croydon is. We’re not in the centre of London – it’s even better than that. Close enough to do lunch. Distant enough to have our own identity, with a name adopted from one of Croydon’s most famous sons, the philanthropist and social thinker, John Ruskin. His view was that, “The measure of any great civilization is in its cities, and a measure of a city’s greatness is to be found in the quality of its public spaces, its parks and its squares”.

  • 7 Altyre Rd, Croydon, Cr9 5Aa Croydon Park Hotel Croydon Park Hotel
    7 ALTYRE RD, CROYDON, CR9 5AA CROYDON PARK HOTEL CROYDON PARK HOTEL EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Exceptional opportunity to purchase a prime freehold hotel in the centre of Croydon’s Commercial District. Substantial 137,000 sq. ft. full-service hotel with 211 guestrooms, car parking, food and beverage facilities, conferencing and event space and fitness and leisure facilities set on a1.54 acre site. The purpose-built Hotel opened in 1984 and was previously operated under an international hotel brand before operating independently until the hotel’s closure in 2020. Available with vacant possession, unencumbered by brand, franchise or management, providing optimal operational and development flexibility with substantial potential to increase value. Prime town centre location in the heart of Croydon in close proximity to East Croydon station, one of London’s busiest stations with 25 million passengers in 2019. Croydon has benefitted from significant recent investment and is set to benefit from further significant investment to regenerate the town centre. Croydon’s strategic position and excellent transport links make the town attractive to key corporate occupiers that have established Croydon as a premier business location in south London. Extensive asset management opportunities including: hotel repositioning; extension of the existing property; or redevelopment of the site to increase the massing and change of use (subject to obtaining the necessary planning and all other consents) to potentially superior alternative use values. The Hotel is situated in the Croydon Metropolitan Centre, the Croydon Opportunity Area and the ‘Edge Area’ for tall buildings, all of which are supportive in principle for additional massing on the site and for alternative uses, potentially unlocking more accretive development proposals.

This boundary embodies 4 main quadrants, as shown in Figure 1, which corresponds to key development areas: - Wellesley Road/Park Lane - Wandle Park - East Croydon - West Croydon West Croydon East Croydon Wandle Park Wellesley Road/ Park Lane Figure 1 Town centre quadrants as defined by the council These quadrants contain the majority of the earmarked developments to take place over the next 10 years in-line with the Urban Regeneration Vehicle and Croydon’s aspiration to be ‘London’s Third City’. For the final report, a total of 30 Energy Clusters have been established to provide spatial indication of the heating, cooling and electrical annual peak and energy demands in the town centre zone. These Energy Clusters are as shown in Figure 2.

  • NLA London Tall Buildings Survey 2017 #Nlatallbuildings
    Annual Update NLA London Tall Buildings Survey 2017 #NLATallBuildings Produced in association with Powered by data from London Tall Buildings Survey Foreword Peter Murray, Chairman, New London Architecture Each year the NLA London Tall Buildings Survey has generated a healthy debate about the benefits, as well as the negative impacts, of tall buildings. It has given a voice to those that propose them as well as those that are more critical. At NLA we remain of the view that in a growing city, well designed tall buildings in the right place are appropriate, a view reiterated by the Mayor of London at his Question Time on March 23. This year’s data will assist the Mayor as he prepares his new London Plan, with drafts expected this autumn. We are encouraged that the Mayor is now actively pursuing the idea of a 3D computer model of London, something we have been pressing for since our first survey in 2014. Developers will be able to place virtual images of their buildings into the wider model so that planners, the public and the Mayor can fully understand their impact. All too often the debate takes place without a clear understanding of the individual and the cumulative impact of proposed tall buildings. The City of London has been using such a model for the past year to great effect. The French technology company Dassault Systems will launch the Virtual Singapore project later this year which will show what the future city will look like, as well as containing comprehensive data about the city’s management.
