Residential conversion above Greenwich building set to begin
Work to convert and extend upper floors of a Greenwich town centre building are set to begin.
The site at 279-283 Greenwich High Road saw an application to alter upper floors in 2025 given approval in January 2026. Winkworth and EWT occupy the ground floor.
Post-completion the building will include 4 x 1 bedroom 2-person flats, 4 x 2 bedroom 3-person flats plus a third floor roof extension creating a 3-bedroom 5-person flat.
A construction management plan has popped up this week.

The building sits a short distance from the town’s post office which was recently rebuilt to include flats above a replacement post office.
Not too far away work is underway to convert the former Greenwich Town Hall into residential usage.
A total of 73 flats will be included within the 1939 building, with approval given in 2023. A hotel is proposed in the adjacent former Borough Hall which was sold by Greenwich Council in 2024.
