The council’s proposal involves transforming Zodiac Court into 73 temporary accommodation flats, addressing the borough's pressing housing crisis, where 3,600 households currently live in temporary accommodation.
If approved, this development at Zodiac Court will play a vital role in alleviating housing shortages, especially as Croydon faces pressure to house residents from neighboring areas.
Zodiac Court, once featured in the sitcom Peep Show, has been vacant for 30 years and will undergo significant restoration to provide self-contained flats ranging from one to three bedrooms.
Croydon Council hopes the Zodiac Court project will lessen the financial pressures of homelessness, especially with a projected overspend of more than 15 million for 2024/25.
