Work begins on new £90m Bromley hotel and restaurant complex
Construction work has begun on a £90m ($135.6m, €105.1m) mixed-use development in Bromley, which will include a new 130-room hotel, a cinema complex and a range of restaurants and bars.
The Bromley South Central project - being developed by Cathedral Group will see the 600-space Westmoreland Road car park demolished to make way for 25,000sq ft (2,322sq m) of cafes and restaurants, a 130-bedroom hotel, 200 private apartments and a new 400-space underground car parking facility.
Bromley Council has said the project could create more than 200 jobs and will inject £220m (US$331.5m, €256.9m) into the local economy over the next 10 years.
Councillor Stephen Carr, leader of Bromley Council confirmed that the council is in discussions with London Mayor, Boris Johnson and Travel for London (TFL) about bringing the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) to Bromley in a bid to further enhance the appeal of the complex.
Set to be completed in 2015, the hotel has already been pre-let to hotel chain Premier Inn and the café and restaurant space has also been pre-let to Nando's, Prezzo and Las Iguanas.
