22 new flats on Crystal Palace Road? Really?


Recommended Posts

Hi all,


First time poster :)


Usually prefer just to read but came across this planning application and can't remember seeing it on here previously.

Planning reference: 14/AP/0115


Mr Barber seems quite good at bringing these matters to the fore - this ones seems to have escaped him! I'm a bit split! Been wanting to buy in the area for a while but this seems like it will cause a lot of disruption - I use the gym regularly.

Parking is a big problem already, I have a friend who lives opposite the leisure centre, Gym users park at the back of her flats (which is for residents only) so she comes home from work and has to park further up cp road.It would be completely naive to think there would be no problems although it certainly makes sense they have included basement parking in their planning permission.


If I could afford it Id probably buy one tho:)just saying!

My worry was the basement, which will extend the full size of the site. The amount of excavation required for this is going to be huge. Whilst the works are happening there will be a lot of parking issues as well as noise etc.


I will be emailing the planning officer but like I said, I actually like the development - I'm saving my deposit!!!

    • Hello, I'm looking for an entertainer for my 9 year old son's birthday party. Looking for someone who can organise some games for the kids as my son and his friends are quite active. Regards, Sue
    • My son’s primary school hatched duck eggs, probably under this scheme around 12 years ago.  We were all very upset to hear that 2 of the (5 year old) boys had knocked the incubator over & all eggs smashed.   feeling a lot less sad about that now!  
    • What would I do about cyclists?  The failed Tory manfesto commitment to train all kids was an excellent proposal.  Public information campaigns aimed at all road users, rather than singling some out, to more considerately share the road, as TfL have done, is welcome too. As for crunching vehicles.  I'd extend this to illegal ebikes, illegal e-scoooters (I think some local authorities have done this with the latter) but before that I would (a) legislate that the delivery companies move away from zero hours contracts to permanent employees and take responsibility for their training, vehicles and behaviour on the road.   More expensive takeaways are a price worth paying for safer roads and proper terms and conditions (b) legislate to register all illegal e-bikes and scooters so that when they are found on the road the retailer takes a hit, and clamp down on any grey markets.  If you buy an e scooter say from Halfords this comes with a disclaimer that it can only be used on private land with the owner's permission.
    • I know a lot of experts in the field and getting a franchise was a license to print money, that is why Virgin were so happy to spend lots of dosh challenging government ten years ago when they lost the West Coast franchise.  This will not be overnight, rather than when the franchise has come to the end. Government had previously taking over the operator of last resort when some TOCs screwed up. Good, at last some clear blue water between the parties.  Tories said they were going to do a halfway house, but I've not noticed.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_British_Railways   : "On 19 October 2022, Transport Secretary Anne-Marie Trevelyan announced that the Transport Bill which would have set up GBR would not go ahead in the current parliamentary session.[15] In February 2023, Transport Secretary Mark Harper re-affirmed the government's commitment to GBR and rail reform.[16] The 2023 King's speech announced the progression of a draft Rail Reform Bill which would enable the establishment of GBR, although it has not been timetabled in the Parliamentary programme.[5] The Transport Secretary Mark Harper later told the Transport Select Committee that the legislation was unlikely to reach Royal Assent within the 2023-2024 parliamentary session.[17]"
