Sainsbury's submits redevelopment planning application

A shedload of Brownie Points go to Rosemary at Albert Square for spotting that a planning application for the Sainsbury's redevelopment has been submitted to Lambeth Council.

As previously noted it features three towers (19, 28 and 37 storeys) and leaves room for Nine Elms tube station.

You can find the details of the application here. The most readable bit is this PDF document although it's over 50MB in size so you may have to be patient (it's easier if you download it and read it offline).
