GERON WAY, NW2 Fabulous success at Barnet Planning Committee for a major PBSA scheme we have designed with and for Astir Living. The site lies next to the new Brent Cross West Station at the intersection of the Brent Cross West (Staples Corner) Growth area and the rapidly developing Brent Cross Cricklewood regeneration area. The scheme includes 844 student rooms – with commercial and café units at the ground designed in an S-shaped plan form that enables landscaped amenity podiums above the commercial units and rises to a 28-storey tower next to the station. The development is designed as an ensemble of complimentary architectural elements and to be the first phase of the emerging Brent Cross West Growth Area. Communal student areas and external amenity are provided at multiple levels, with the whole of the top floor conceived as a sky lounge with 360-degree views and a wrap-around terrace set within a double-height open frame that in turn will act as a key way-finder to the adjacent station. The design has benefitted from regular and positive dialogue with an engaged planning and design team at Barnet; an enlightened and hands-on client; a great set of consultants and a proactive and forward-thinking planning team at Iceni. Geron Way, NW2 |

WALKER HOUSE Delighted to secure consent last night at Tower Hamlets for a mixed use scheme with 4 new flats within existing block and 400sqm of new flexible office space on stilts/pilotis above a sunken parking courtyard. The site falls within the Boundary Street Conservation Area and adjacent to the listed Wargrave House in the Boundary Estate – one of the earliest social housing schemes built by a local authority, 1890. Arnold Circus with it’s raised bandstand is just round the corner , a much loved and very and timely covered open amenity through the lockdown. A fabulously challenging project with a brief to retain existing parking, increase bin and bike provision, achieve high levels of flexibility and light and improve outlook to the surrounding blocks that look down at the site. A brilliant team including @emperor_vision (CgIs) and @bespokepropertyconsultants (viability) and congratulations to Dominion Properties our client. |
