Seven years after it was first approved - and after several false starts - work is due to start before the end of the year on the construction of a 44-storey tower close to the Elephant & Castle's southern junction.
With a week to go until Lambeth councillors determine the Garden Bridge planning application the project has received a £3 million boost from the American banking group Citi.
Detectives investigating the murder of a teenager in Pilgrimage Street have arrested a man.
The University of the Arts London says it is "committed in principle" to finding a new home for the London College of Communication as part of a "flagship development" in the Elephant & Castle area.
British Transport Police officers investigating a violent assault on a member of staff at London Bridge Station have released CCTV pictures of the incident.
