In joint venture with Lend Lease, we are developing one of the UK’s largest regeneration schemes at Greenwich Peninsula in London.
At 190 acres this extensive new quarter of the Capital is expected to form Europe’s largest mass of green roofs when complete, just 20 minutes from the West End.
At the heart of the scheme is Peninsula Central – a new business district for London. Its focal point is Peninsula Square, linking the 3.5m square foot of offices with North Greenwich tube station, 363,000 sq ft of retail and The O2. The first commercial building is now under construction and like will achieve a BREEAM rating of ‘oustanding’ when complete.
With 1.6 miles of waterside, many of the 10,000 new homes being created here will have views across the river over Canary Wharf, which is one stop away on the Jubilee Line, or towards the iconic Thames Barrier. Thousands of others will overlook Central Park, which runs through the centre of the development and provides residents with instant access to a significant expanse of green space.
Early animation is a vital element of large-scale regeneration schemes. At Greenwich Peninsula more than 500,000 people every month are visiting The O2, and when Ravensbourne College re-locates to an adjacent site for the start of the 2010 academic year 1,500 students will be visiting the Peninsula daily.
