Revitalizing Teddington Police Station: A Multifaceted Community Hub
Architects AWK propose transforming the derelict Teddington Police Station in South London into a vibrant community hub. The plan includes twenty-one affordable flats, a GP surgery, an indoor and outdoor cinema, a bar, and a co-working café. The station, which closed in 2017 and was fully decommissioned in 2022, is still owned by the Metropolitan Police and up for sale. Local MP Munira Wilson has been advocating for this project, securing a law change to allow the Mayors Office for Policing and Crime to sell sites like this below market value for community use. The proposal also includes a Community Land Trust for locals to own and manage the housing part, plus self-build options. Full details will be available on AWKs website next month.
