Lewisham Shopping Centre
Lewisham Shopping Centre, formerly Riverdale Centre, is a shopping mall located in Lewisham, London, England. The centre is the major shopping centre in the London Borough of Lewisham. Also part of the complex is the Lewisham House office tower, formerly occupied by Citibank. There are proposals to convert this building to flats.
The centre is located in Lewisham town centre and was built over the former streets Rhyme Road and Romer Avenue. The official address is on Molesworth Street (a dual carriageway section of the A21). The car park is located on the upper levels. Facilities at the centre include public toilets with baby changing, photobooths and ATMs. The Migration Museum is based in the centre.
Since the Docklands Light Railway extension from Island Gardens reached Lewisham the centre experienced an increase in customers.[citation needed]
The largest stores in the centre are Sainsbury's, Marks and Spencer, H&M and Argos.
The Model Market is a street food market at the south end of the site, which opens in the summer months.
In September 2022, Landsec announced its intention to redevelop the Lewisham Shopping Centre site as part of a long-term regeneration programme for Lewisham town centre. The plans propose new homes, community facilities and public spaces while re-establishing a traditional high street layout across the 17-acre (7 ha) site.
In November 2023, the developer appointed Studio Egret West as lead architect. The initial concept included around 1,700 new homes, new community spaces and event squares, and a green "urban meadow" park through the centre of the site.
In November 2024, Landsec-U+I submitted a hybrid planning application to Lewisham London Borough Council seeking consent for the first phases of the scheme. The masterplan proposes approximately 1,700 new homes, including 445 co-living units and up to 660 student rooms, alongside shops, cafés and workspaces.
