LONDON-Lend Lease and Quintain have applied to the London Borough of Greenwich for consent to redevelop the 190-acre Greenwich peninsula site with a massive mixed use project, which includes plans to bring the Millennium Dome back into use.

The proposal includes up to 10,000 new homes in a mix of tenures; 3.7 million sf of offices in buildings of up to 15 storeys; 350,000 sf of retail and a hotel. Ever since the UK government ploughed more than £750 million ($1.2 billion) into the Millennium Dome project, the site has been a political hot potato.
