CV8 Vision for Earl’s Court in 2028

By 2028, the former exhibition centre will be transformed into a vibrant new urban village, which reflects the crescents and squares nearby. It will link to a strengthened Earl’s Court Road District Centre and the wider Earl’s Court and West Kensington Opportunity Area. A new cultural offer on the site of the former Exhibition Centre will draw on its legacy and will add to the activity and interest of the area continuing to make Earl’s Court a lively cultural destination. Steps will have been taken to humanise the area’s streetscape with improvements to Cromwell Road, West Cromwell Road, Warwick Road and Earl’s Court Road.

Although physically separate from Earl’s Court, new residential-led development along Warwick Road will further reinforce the new urban quarter. A linear park will provide a pedestrian route through the western Warwick Road sites linking to the Lost River Park on the Earl’s Court development to the south. The park will also improve east-west connections across the barrier of the railway line. The area will continue to offer a wide range of residential accommodation and will provide community infrastructure to support local life.
