Planning inspector overturns Croydon Council rejection aimed at protecting Seifert landmark

Squire & Partners has won planning permission for a 28-storey co-living development in Croydon that was originally rejected by the local planning authority because of its impact on Richard Seifert’s nearby NLA Tower.

The Squires scheme was created for developers Fifth State and Wittington Investments and will replace the five-storey Citylink House office building on Addiscombe Road, east Croydon.

It will deliver 498 shared-living units and 84 on-site affordable homes, as well as 594sq m of space for community and commercial use.
