A public inquiry into a large planning application in Victoria Way started today at Woolwich Town Hall.
The application from Galliard Homes would see the demolition of the existing warehouse building at the site and the development of 209 apartments – rising up to six-storeys in part – and basement parking for 169 vehicles at the land to the rear of 40 Victoria Way.
Galliard have been marketing this development under the name Constellation for several years off plan.
After having the application rejected by Greenwich Council, Galliard have appealed to the independent Planning Inspectorate.
The public inquiry at the Town Hall is scheduled to run until Friday.
this planning permission should not be granted. It will be a huge eyesore for the surrounding area.
I am in favour of the development; it could bring so much more to the area. I think the council should impose a condition that some of this land is commercial let: for shops and restaurants
