Ballymore has secured approval to construct 1,685 new properties on an business brownfield web page at the north financial institution of the River Thames, to the east of Thames Barrier Park.
It expects to start out building in 2027.
The consented scheme, sometimes called Unex, may also come with a brand new number one college, greater than 13,500 sq m of sunshine business and versatile workspace, a brand new riverside park and a variety of ground-floor retail and group areas.
Designed by way of Howells, the structure is alleged to reply to the Royal Docks’ business heritage “via a palette of brick tones and sundry construction typologies, from riverside mansion blocks and townhouses to fresh co-living structures, making a layered and unique new neighbourhood”.
Plans for a sister web page at Knights Highway in West Silvertown had been submitted in 2024 and are these days watching for choice. Those proposals contain 1,667 properties along 4,000 sq m of sunshine business and versatile workspace, designed by way of Allies & Morrison.
Ballymore team managing director John Mulryan stated: “Securing consent for Thames Highway is an important milestone and a powerful endorsement of the ambition and care that has formed those proposals. Our dedication to the Royal Docks spans many years, and this approval permits us to construct at the luck of Royal Wharf whilst proceeding to reply thoughtfully to the realm’s evolving persona and wishes.
“Royal Wharf has demonstrated what fine quality brownfield regeneration can succeed in, changing into a world benchmark for brand new the town supply since its finishing touch in 2020. With making plans now in position for Thames Highway, we’re excited to transport ahead and get ready to start out building subsequent yr.”
