Local project-management patterns in Elephant and Castle
In Elephant and Castle, client-side project management sits against stock described as major regeneration and social housing transformation ā with buildings near Elephant and Castle, Walworth Road, New Kent Road, Heygate. Programme advice should allow for condition risks where opening-up is likely. Consent strategy must also reflect the local planning context.

Structural movement in new-build towers on former industrial and commercial ground, defective cladding on 1960sā70s social housing blocks, damp penetration in Victorian terrace solid brick walls found on Elephant and Castle projects are the kind of risk a project manager needs on the register from day one: quantifying the likely cost and programme impact early is what keeps a scheme deliverable to the original budget and timeline.

Elephant and Castle is a major Opportunity Area; Southwark Council applies design codes for the regeneration zone; the area around Walworth Road has several conservation area designations.
