What’s happening in Fitzrovia this month?
There have been three recent appeal decisions in Mortimer Street: a roof-level terrace at No.37-41, redevelopment of No. 30-32, Wells Street and part of Bywell Place, and alterations to a bow window at No. 18. All three appeals were refused mainly on grounds of conservation and their impact on the East Marylebone Conservation Area. With No. 30-32, they already have permission to restore and convert the existing building. The Neighbourhood Plan was listed as an important consideration in each case.
The Forum has just been notified of this appeal:
23/00059/TPREF | Use of ground floor as an Adult Gaming Centre (Sui Generis) with external alterations to shopfront including the relocation of access and associated works. | Century House 100 – 102 Oxford Street London W1D 1LL

FitzWest Forum
At the FitzWest Forum, we have a small committee of local residents who keep an eye on applications and draw attention to ones that are important. The committee meets every 4-6 weeks, currently by Zoom, and discusses the implications of various applications. It’s an opportunity to have a real input and affect on Council decisions, and great for people who don’t have a lot of time but want to be involved.
If you would like to be on this committee please contact info@fitzwest.org.
