The Bottle StoreActing on behalf of City & Provincial Properties, HawkinsBrown have been awarded planning permission by the London Borough of Lambeth for the redevelopment of the Watney Mann brewery site in Stockwell, South London.
The Bottle Store development will regenerate the site of the former nineteenth-century brewery into a vibrant centre.
It promises to be an exemplary mixed-use inner city development, incorporating private, shared-ownership and social rented housing, commercial office space, small business start-up units, retail units and a health centre.
The £53 million regeneration project will create 290 new homes and the potential for 400 new jobs for the London Borough of Lambeth.
The proposed scheme retains the original 1960's bottling store, which will be re-clad with a semi- translucent façade to reveal the existing structure and expose a new hub of activity.
Featuring a street façade of concrete panels with inset coloured glass lenses, it will be the flagship building of the development, referencing the history of the site.
A new three-storey block will be built to the East and will provide flexible workspace for business start-ups from 280 sq ft.
The two blocks will comprise 89,000 sq ft of new business units.
The Bottle Store will also provide 19 duplex apartments on the upper two floors.
