King’s Scholars’ Passage was identified as a project site within the Victoria BID Public Realm strategy, People Wanted, as one of a suite of spaces that could “transform Victoria into a place for people, create a destination and a successful location for all to work, live, shop and move in.”
King’s Scholars’ Passage, situated not far from Victoria Station, is a back alley overlooked by the rear elevations of buildings on Vauxhall Bridge Road and Carlisle Place. The buildings house a variety of uses, such as offices, private residences, and hospitality and retail. Its current arrangement is uninviting and attracts anti-social behaviour which spills out on to nearby streets marring this area of Victoria and affecting businesses, passers-by and local residents.
Recently the team have worked to install additional planning with a wide range of biodiverse plants.
The greening projects has received an ‘Outstanding’ award from ‘London in Bloom’ judges.
We are now working with local partners to improve gateways, harvest rain water and include more of the local community to participate in area greening. Please contact info@london-hq.co.uk to find out more.
