"The Science Museum is to establish a major new building at the centre of the redevelopment in Old Oak Common.
"The Standard revealed yesterday that Boris Johnson is in talks to bring a 'household name' organisation to the west London site, which is currently occupied by the Cargiant used car lot.
"Although the identity of the 'world-famous cultural institution' has not been officially revealed, senior City Hall sources confirmed it is the South Kensington museum.
"The 46-acre site will be turned into a neighbourhood with up to 7,000 homes, known as Old Oak Park, next to the Grand Union Canal after Cargiant moves out in 2021."
