BM Northwest Development

Some disappointing news yesterday.

The local council, Camden, voted to not approve the proposed Northwest Development at the British Museum.

As you’ll remember, the Northwest Development would have offered a series of new conservation studios, storage spaces, and a large gallery for temporary exhibitions.

The Museum is now deciding how to proceed, and which aspects of the scheme could be modified to gain planning approval.
