New development plans set out for The Mall Walthamstow
Capital & Regional has submitted a planning application for a retail extension, residential development and new Town Square at The Mall Walthamstow.
The 86,000 square foot retail extension will accommodate up to 12 new retailers and five food and beverage operators.
The plans show the redeveloped Mall within an enhanced two acre Town Square, which includes informal play facilities, sensory gardens and an events space.
Having acquired The Mall in 1997, Capital & Regional undertook a full refurbishment of the shopping centre in 2015 and has subsequently secured long-term commitments from brands such as TK Maxx, Sports Direct, The Gym Group and Lidl.
Ken Ford, executive director at Capital & Regional, said: “We are excited to unveil our plans for Walthamstow town centre, which is emerging as one of London’s most vibrant neighbourhoods.
“Following the successful refurbishment of The Mall in 2015, we see huge potential to create an integrated destination comprising an enhanced retail and leisure offer and much needed new homes, all set in a remodelled public square adjacent to Walthamstow transport hub.“
