The scheme delivers 4,372 sqm of flexible workspace supporting 370 jobs, a new community centre, and a café, all designed with accessibility and inclusivity in mind. The project actively promotes economic growth by fostering small businesses, supporting start-ups, and creating a civic landmark that enhances cultural vitality and sustainability in Southwark.
