The proposed development by Kylun Ltd to construct two towers at the centre of the Vauxhall gyratory system, will be discussed by Lambeth's Planning Applications Committee on 15 February.

The council has received 57 letters of objection, 23 letters of support, and 5 letters of comment regarding the proposal, which would see the construction of a 41-storey tower and a 32-storey tower, containing between them 291 apartments, a 179-room hotel, office, retail, and community and leisure facilities.
The proposal is to be discussed at the Planning Applications Committee so that council Officers can get a steer as to the acceptability of the development; in addition, there is an unresolved issue regarding the proposed road crossing between the development and St. George's Wharf (a proposal that TfL, who are responsible for the road, object to) - there is a concern that without a formal crossing, people may try to cross the road in any case, at great personal risk.
It is expected that a final decision regarding the scheme will be made at a subsequent meeting, once the road crossing issue is resolved, but this decision will be largely informed by the output of the meeting on the 15th February.
The planning meeting will be held at 7pm on the 15th February, in Room 8, Ground Floor, Lambeth Town Hall, SW2 1RW. The committee will have details of all of the submissions received thus far, but if you would like to address the meeting on this topic, you can do so by emailing the Governance and Democracy office at democracy@lambeth.gov.uk (Tel: 020 7926 2170), by 12:00 on Monday 14 February with the following information:
