Details of plans to build more than 200 council homes at Battersea Power Station have been released. A total of 203 flats are proposed for a new 18-storey apartment block on the 42-acre site, in a major turning point for the £9 billion regeneration.
Labour-run Wandsworth Council partnered with Battersea Power Station Development Company (BPSDC) last year to deliver affordable housing, after previously criticising the developer for only agreeing to build 386 affordable homes, or nine per cent, of roughly 4,000 homes. The regeneration was originally approved when the council was still under Conservative control in 2011 and began in 2013.
