位于帕里街(南)、邦德威(东)和万德斯沃思路/阿尔伯特路堤(西与北)之间的一处地皮上，位于伦敦计划(London Plan)确定为通往现有交通线路的通道和一个有可能容纳高密度发展的节点的地块内。沃克斯豪尔本身也是最近一些重要的和即将到来的项目的现场，包括斯特林奖得主新港街画廊和附近的九榆树桥。

Located on a site bounded by Parry Street (to the south), Bondway (to the east) and Wandsworth Road / Albert Embankment (to the west and north), the complex is located within an plot identified by the London Plan as a gateway to existing transportation links and a node with the potential to accommodate high-density development. Vauxhall itself has also been the site of a number of recent important and upcoming projects, including the Stirling Prize-winning Newport Street Gallery and the nearby future Nine Elms Bridge.

他说：“这项设计是因应兰贝思议会对沃克斯豪尔区中心的期望，在繁忙的铁路、地下及巴士交汇处附近，兴建一个充满活力的新公众广场。”该提案还考虑到TfL现有的计划，升级交通轮回和汽车站，为所有人提供更大的可达性和安全性，“Zaha Hadid建筑公司解释说。

“The design responds to Lambeth Council’s aspirations for a district centre for Vauxhall by creating a vibrant new public square adjacent to the busy rail, underground and bus interchange. The proposal also accommodates TfL’s existing plans to upgrade the traffic gyratory and bus station to provide greater accessibility and safety for all,” explain Zaha Hadid Architects.

“这一项目将在新的公共广场、住宅、办公室、商店和一家酒店的混合用途设计中创造约2000个新的城市就业机会-为日益壮大的沃克斯豪尔社区提供重要的城市空间、便利设施和就业机会。”

“This project will generate approximately 2,000 new jobs in the borough within a mixed-use design that includes a new public square, homes, offices, shops and a hotel - providing vital civic space, amenities and employment for the growing Vauxhall community.”

正如建筑师所解释的，沃克斯豪尔十字岛项目将通过四个关键的设计原则来挖掘这一潜力：

The Vauxhall Cross Island project will tap into this potential through four key design principles, as explained by the architects:

1.回应2013年通过的沃克斯豪尔补充规划文件(SPD)规定的Lambeth理事会建立新的地区中心的愿望。主要通过：

1. Respond to Lambeth Council’s aspirations for a new district centre as set out in the Vauxhall Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) adopted in 2013. Principally through:

为沃克斯豪尔提供一个活跃和欢迎的目的地，创造更明确的街道设置，保持沃克斯豪尔作为运输交汇处的重要性

Providing an active and welcoming destination for Vauxhall Creating a more defined street setting Maintaining the importance of Vauxhall as a transport interchange

2.促进自治区的就业和就业

2.  Contribute to employment and jobs in the borough

新提案优先考虑增加办公和商业空间，同时新建希尔顿酒店，该酒店将成为沃克斯豪尔的主要租户，并将为在该市提供就业机会做出重大贡献。据估计，该计划将在酒店、零售、大厦管理和办公部门创造约2000个就业机会。

The new proposal prioritise increased office and commercial space alongside a new Hilton Hotel that will be a major tenant for Vauxhall and will make a significant contribution to providing employment opportunities in the borough. The proposed scheme is estimated to create approximately 2,000 jobs across the hospitality, retail, building management and office-based sectors.

3.启用TfL的沃克斯豪尔旋转和公共汽车站

3. Enable TfL’s Vauxhall gyratory and bus station

TfL分别计划在沃克斯豪尔站旁边建造一个旋转站和巴士站方案。虽然这些计划是互相独立的，但TfL建议的回旋及巴士站计划的实施，需要实施VCI物业所拥有的土地。先前同意的该地盘计划，将可防止建议中的回旋改变。

TfL have separate plans to build a gyratory and bus station scheme next to Vauxhall Station. Whilst the schemes are independent of each other, the delivery of TfL’s proposed gyratory and bus station scheme requires land owned by VCI Property Holding to be implemented. The previously consented scheme for the site would have prevented the proposed gyratory changes.

4.回应新兴的沃克斯豪尔集群

4. Respond to the emerging Vauxhall cluster

对建筑物的设计进行审查可以使该方案更好地适应正在出现的沃克斯豪尔集群。该设计与区内其他建议发展项目的高度一致。

建筑本身就是根据这些原则而设计的，沿着沃克斯豪尔站和TfL新的公交车站之间的高流量路线在Bonday创建了一个新的公共广场。这种不断的人流将使广场能够举办一个完整的社区活动节目，如市场和表演。

The architecture itself has been designed in response to these principles, creating a new public square along the highly trafficked route between Vauxhall Station and the TfL’s new bus stations on Bonday. This constant flow of people will allow the square to host a full program of community events, such as markets and performances.

围绕广场，该计划需要一家500间客房的酒店、260套私人住宅和负担得起的住宅、22万平方英尺的办公空间以及7000平方英尺的零售和餐饮空间。

Encircling the square, the scheme calls for a 500+ room hotel, a mix of 260 private and affordable residences, 220,000 square feet of office space and 7,000 square feet of retail and dining space.

虽然这项计划受到一些人士的反对，他们认为这项建议对该幅土地来说太大，但发展商和建筑师仍在继续与社会人士合作，推介该计划，以求达到最佳用途。

While the scheme has been met with some backlash from individuals who believe the proposal is too large for the site, the developers and architects are continuing to work with the community to massage the scheme for optimal use.
