The Movement’s developers to hold community meeting

A MEETING will take place next where you can learn more about a new development about to get under way off Norman Road.

The Movement will see new homes, student accommodation, hotels and even a new road built on the land between Norman Road and Waller Way, behind Greenwich High Road.

Plans for the scheme first emerged in the summer of 2010 and the developer, Cathedral Group, gained planning permission from Greenwich Council’s Planning Board last year.

The industrial units that stood on the land have now been cleared (pictured top) and work on the development should last until the summer of 2014.

The community liaison meeting is the first of what will be quarterly meetings help by the developer and is taking place at Devonport House on Tuesday 3rd July 2012 between 6.30pm – 8pm. Anyone wishing to attend should register first – details on how to get in touch are on this web page.

The Movement: New development proposed in Norman Road

August 13, 2010 By Rob Powell

Proposals have been published for a big new development in West Greenwich.

The plans would see the construction of a hotel with 100 rooms, 500 rooms of student accommodation and 200 apartments at the corner of Norman Road and Greenwich High Road.

Initial details of the proposal have emerged in an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) which was required to be submitted before full planning permission can be applied for.

The proposed development – given the monicker ‘The Movement’ by its London-based developers, the Cathedral Group – would be built on the site of Greenwich Industrial Estate which fronts onto Norman Road.

The development, which would reach up to eleven storeys high and be visible from Greenwich Park and the Old Royal Naval College, also includes plans for a student bar and health club, 5000 sq ft of commercial floor space and space for a new community centre.

Whilst the developers are looking to complete the project by 2013, their first priority would be to get the hotel built and opened in time for London 2012.

Cathedral Group were previously responsible for redeveloping Devonport House into a hotel and student accommodation and are also currently seeking planning permission for a large redevelopment project in Deptford.

The plans are still at an early stage and the developers will now be waiting for Greenwich Council’s formal response to their Environmental Impact Assessment before submitting a full planning application.
