The Case for London’s Latin Quarter: Retention, Growth, Sustainability

Jan 29, 2015 | Projects

The report is the output of 18 months of research with the local community and other key stakeholders at Elephant and Castle, which is the current focus of one of Europe’s largest regeneration projects.

The result is a strategic community vision that maps the journey of the Latin Quarter and identifies its contribution to the revitalisation of Elephant and Castle both now and into the future.

Retaining cultural diversity in regeneration strategies is a key urban challenge for many cities nowadays.

In answer to this the report proposes 5 development opportunities for adoption in the case of the Latin Quarter at Elephant and Castle. It then draws upon these findings to identify priority areas and make recommendations of best practice to decision makers that address the needs of all migrant ethnic entrepreneurs across London and secure their role in the future prosperity of the capital.
