PODCAST: The civic role of a new town hall

23.04.24 1 min read by James Stockdale

Listen as James Stockdale joins Christine Murray, Editor-in-Chief of The Developer for discussion about our ‘Your New Town Hall’ project in Brixton.

Working with our partner, the London Borough of Lambeth, we rationalised the council’s core office buildings from 14 to 2, making savings and cutting carbon footprints by two-thirds.

We freed up vital space for community uses, restored the historic Grade II Listed town hall and Art Deco Ivor House, created a brand new civic and community hub, alongside new homes and commercial space.

In the podcast, James explores the important civic role of a town hall and how it’s important to listen to the community when undertaking such a prominent regeneration project.
