VINCI St. Modwen – Merchants Way, Nine Elms
Transforming a Hidden Pathway into a Cultural Connector
Merchants Way, a previously overlooked pedestrian route alongside New Covent Garden Market, had the potential to become a welcoming and vibrant space for visitors, workers, and residents. Pocket Creatives was appointed to develop and implement a cultural activation strategy, ensuring the pathway became a celebrated part of Nine Elms’ wider regeneration.
