Planning decision on £770m Morden Wharf proposal for 1,500 homes across four towers is imminent

OMA’s £770m mixed-use Morden Wharf development on London’s Greenwich peninsula has come under attack from the local MP who has written to the local council to lodge his opposition.

Matthew Pennycook, Labour MP for Greenwich and Woolwich, says the four-tower mixed-use scheme is too tall.
