What does the Oxford Street Development Corporation's first year tell us about the future of one of the world's most iconic high streets, and what should developers, investors and landowners expect from London's newest planning authority?
Kanda’s Yiannis Sophocleous sits down with Nabeel Khan, Chief Executive of the Oxford Street Development Corporation (OSDC), to discuss the Corporation's journey from establishment to delivery and its ambitions for the future of Oxford Street.
Following the transfer of planning powers earlier this summer, Nabeel reflects on the OSDC's progress to date, its priorities for the years ahead and how it intends to work with developers, local authorities, businesses and community stakeholders to deliver the future of Oxford Street. The conversation also explores the practical implications of the OSDC becoming the Local Planning Authority. Namely, what applicants should know when bringing forward proposals, and the role of pedestrianisation, public realm improvements and regeneration in shaping the future of one of London's most important commercial hotspots into an experience-led destination.
