Community asked to give feedback on Limmo Peninsula scheme
C.F. Møller has been appointed to draw up the plans for Transport for London (TfL) and Grainger’s project to build 1,500 build-to-rent homes at Limmo Peninsula in Canning Town.
The proposals for the site at Limmo Peninsula are in the early stage, with the groups behind the project looking to engage with the views and ideas of the local community before proceeding to the next stage.
The vacant site is currently being used for the construction of Crossrail.
TfL announced Grainger as preferred bidder to be its BTR partner in April, including the scheme at Limmo Peninsula.
TfL and Grainger’s Connected Living London Programme will deliver at least 3,000 homes across seven sites, with a minimum of 40% affordable housing on all new planning consents.
This will significantly contribute towards TfL’s affordable housing provision across its entire portfolio, which also includes sites that will be mostly or entirely affordable, and means the organisation is on track to deliver 50% affordable housing across its estate.
Dan Lovatt, head of build-to-rent at TfL, said: “Build-to-rent is a really exciting programme and we’re thrilled at the prospect of working with Grainger to build the homes that our city desperately needs.
“It provides us with an unrivalled opportunity to deliver affordable, high quality homes at pace, including at the Limmo Peninsula, while also generating significant ongoing revenue to reinvest into the transport network.”
