Westfield, Stratford City

Westfield Stratford City created a new Metropolitan Centre for East London incorporating c.176,000 sq m of town centre retail, anchored by John Lewis.

Members of our team prepared a regional Retail Impact Assessment to underpin the Stratford City planning application; produced further detailed supplementary analysis dealing with the leisure elements of the proposal; and examined the scope for a wider redevelopment of the centre including parts of the existing centre of Stratford.

Consultation with adjoining boroughs was integral to the process.  Regular meetings with the GLA and other key stakeholders were key to addressing any concerns arising in respect of the scale and impact of the proposed development.
