Fire damaged Deptford block being rebuilt with office-to-housing conversion planned
A block on Creek Road in Deptford that saw substantial fire damage in 2022 is now being rebuilt.
In addition, an application has recently been submitted to Greenwich Council to convert first floor offices across the building at Meridian Point into thirteen flats.
A substantial section of the building was hit by fire which spread via internal cavities destroying a number of flats and commercial space.
Much of the building was pulled down last year with residents and business such as Big Little Fun losing their home.
In terms of future appearance the latest application for change of use to residential states it is “being reconstructed to the original appearance”.
The latest application for conversion can be viewed here.
As a private renter living costs are very high and ads bring in relatively little to the site. I run it alone, and you can support me through Paypal with a one-off or monthly donation here

Good to see buildings being brought back in to use for housing or commercial use.
I think housing on this site will be welcomed as the demand for new housing grows
Housing waiting list are only set to get a lot worse with a wait for social housing homes growing from the average 10 year wait for a social housing home in London.
