BRIXTON TOWN CENTRE REDEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL

BRIXTON TOWN CENTRE REDEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL

Model for the redevelopment of Brixton town centre seen from above Brixton Road looking south. Designed by Ted Hollamby, Lambeth's Chief Architect and Town Planner, the proposal included a flyover above the railway line and fifty-storey blocks of flats. However, due to lack of funding from central government, Southwyck House in Coldharbour Lane was the only element of the scheme completed. Photograph by Sydney Newbery.
