London’s Latitude Architects has secured detailed planning permission for a 15-story hotel on a street in the Elephant & Castle district of Southwark, U.K., Building Design reports. The 89-room proposal for Create Reit will replace a pair of interconnected three-story buildings on St. George’s Road. The new building, which will have two basement levels and a three-story section, will have around 750 m2 of office space, a café and a 70-m2 “micro” retail unit. Recommending the hotel scheme for approval, planning officers said the development would be a “high quality” building that incorporated a range of “robust and rich facing materials, brought together into a refined and striking architecture through careful detailing.” Seven members of Southwark’s Planning Committee voted in favor of Latitude’s proposals at their meeting last week. One councilor abstained, and there were no votes against.
