A residential-led, mixed-use scheme for Westminster City Council, Harrow Road is an ambitious regeneration project intrinsically focused upon placemaking and substantially enhancing the social environment for the community.
The development comprises the re-provision of existing community facilities, a nursery, new public realm, commercial spaces, and crucially 112 new homes – all of which will be genuinely affordable at social rent. Focusing upon the residential element of the project, all sit within a mixed schedule of accommodation ranging from studio to 3-bedroom apartments – with the majority of family-sized dwellings provided within the social tenure to support an identified need by the local authority.
The design intentionally improves the connectivity between Harrow Road and the canal, while new active frontages not only provide a sense of place but help create a safe and secure environment for all residents.
“The proposals for Harrow Road are some of the best I’ve seen, it is a remarkably good scheme, very imaginative, and the overall development is so impressive.”
Cllr Guthrie McKie, City of Westminster Planning Committee
