- A Luxembourg firm has proposed a huge 100,000 sq m data centre at Charlton Riverside — roughly the size of 14 football pitches.
- The plan sits alongside a council-backed drive for 8,000 homes and clashes with a proposed 5,000-capacity events venue, prompting local concerns.
- Building it would require demolishing three locally listed buildings and generate large construction waste; the council must respond to the environmental scoping by 11 Sept and a full application is expected soon.
