Work is set to begin on 188-room hotel, costing £4.5m, on the former Woolworths site on Brixton Road.
According to the Brixton Blog:
The application was submitted by Boyes Rees Architects on behalf of Crown Properties Ltd. The architects have said that the design of the hotel manages to “harness the vibrancy” of Brixton and is sympathetic to the Art Deco style of the existing building.
