Lendlease launches next phase retail leasing at Elephant Park
Lendlease has released details of its plans for local independent businesses to operate alongside established London brands within the Elephant Park development emerging in the south of the capital.
Phase Two of the £2.3bn development at Elephant Park will include 16 units totalling 37,000 sq ft aimed at F&B, leisure and retail businesses. The new units will be designed to serve local residents, but also to attract visitors to a new food destination for London.
Ash Avenue is a run of large format cafés and restaurants facing south, opening directly onto a new park. The remaining units are located on New Kent Road and Chatteris Quarter will have a mixed retail offer with a health, fitness and wellbeing focus.
Guy Thomas, head of retail at Lendlease, said: “Elephant Park will be a thriving community in central London; a place where people want to live, build futures, work and visit; and one that has a sustainable long-term future because it reflects, and adds, to the Elephant & Castle community and Southwark more widely. The retail, F&B and leisure offer of Phase Two will play a key role in fulfilling this by delivering a balanced mix of independent operators from the local area and brands with a wider footprint in London.”
CF Commercial, Nash Bond and Shelley Sandzer are the agents for Phase Two.
