‘i360’ West Pier Observation Tower and Heritage Centre

Plans for a major development on land at and adjacent to Brighton’s West Pier, including nos. 62-73 Kings Road Arches, were submitted to the council on Monday 17 July 2006. Additional information was submitted on Friday 8 September 2006. The development consists of two applications: a full planning application and a listed building consent application.

Planning permission and listed building consent for both applications was granted at the Planning Applications Sub-Committee on 11 October 2006, subject to approval by the Government Office for the South East. 

All of the plans, drawings and other supporting documents, including the additional information submitted on Friday 8 September can be viewed on our website by entering the application numbers (BH2006/02369 and BH2006/02372) on the online planning register or at the Council's CityDirect offices at Hove Town Hall in Norton Road or at Bartholomew House in Bartholomew Square, Brighton.

The scheme, known as the ‘i360’ was submitted by Marks Barfield, the creators of the London Eye.
