Summary
Lewisham Council has unveiled a bold new “retrofit-first” regeneration plan for Catford, ditching demolition in favor of revitalizing key sites like the Shopping Centre and Milford Towers — plus Laurence House and car parks. The £1.2 million write-off for unpaid bills and a £500k loan to support local property ownership signal serious investment, while road upgrades, station links, 113 affordable homes, and even the return of the beloved Catford Cat statue aim to breathe life back into the town centre. With Goldsmiths’ new campus set to arrive in 2027, this isn’t just about fixing infrastructure — it’s about rebuilding community trust, transparency, and vibrancy for Catford’s future.
