Episode Details

Plans are advancing to demolish the old Bromley Civic Centre and build 222 new apartments across six modern buildings, plus convert the historic Bromley Palace into 11 homes. The developer, who bought the land for $13.5 million, initially proposed 128 flats but scrapped it due to lack of natural light and too many small units. The revised plan includes 110 one-bedrooms, 95 two-bedrooms, 15 three-bedrooms, and two studios—with 22 designated as affordable. While planning officers support the project for meeting housing demand and adding public space, residents object over small flats, heritage clashes, and strain on local services. The council’s Development Control Committee will soon decide—balancing housing needs against preserving Bromley’s historic character.
