Ziser London have now submitted their planning application to replace the Matalan building with residential blocks up to 9 storeys high. Click here for the 66 documents and drawings; as usual, the Design and Access Statement is the most readable introduction. Brent’s planning portal is open for comments. There’s no deadline shown yet and no list of neighbours being sent letters. Updated: the list is now online. The deadline for comments is 20th February.
We haven’t noticed any significant changes from the plans we were shown last year and as far as we know, Matalan’s lease still runs out in August this year. Ziser London would like to build on the Wickes site as well but that’s separately owned and Wickes have another 10 years on their lease.
