JTP Win Major London Regeneration Competition for Silvertown Way, East London

Published on 18 September 2014

John Thompson & Partners is delighted that its proposals to develop a former industrial site at Silvertown Way have been selected by the Greater London Authority (GLA) as its preferred scheme.

The final scheme, designed collaboratively by JTP and Cartwright Pickard, has been conceived as an exemplar mixed-use urban quarter and will deliver 1,100 homes on the 2.5 ha former industrial site, of which half will be affordable. A central public square will become the focal point for the scheme and its surrounding neighbourhoods. The new vibrant local destination will also be home to a hotel, crèche and community garden.

The schemes forms part of the GLA’s London Development Panel (LDP), set up to accelerate the delivery of housing in London by making it faster, easier and cheaper for public land owners to bring forward land for development. It features 347 private rented homes, 232 homes for affordable rent, and 154 for affordable ownership with 8,000m² of commercial space.

Marcus Adams, Managing Partner of JTP said “JTP is delighted to be part of Galliford Try and Thames Valley Housing’s winning team to create an exciting new neighbourhood in East London”.
