Argent Related has submitted
proposals for the mixed-use redevelopment of Tottenham Hale in North London,
featuring landscape design by Grant
Associates.
Masterplanned by
architects Allford Hall Monaghan Morris
(AHMM), Alison Brooks
Architects and Pollard
Thomas Edwards alongside Grant Associates, the project will deliver some
1,036 new homes.
Grant Associates’
key focus is within the strategically important Ferry Island. The aim is to
create a new destination at the heart of the District Centre that will provide
a substantially improved public realm, unify streets and spaces, prioritise
pedestrian and cyclist access, and reinforce the connection between Ashley Road
and the retail park to the south.
The developer’s
proposals are likely to go before the council’s planning sub-committee later
this year.
“Tottenham is well
known for its buzzing street life, entrepreneurial vigour and cultural
diversity. But its central area has long been constrained on all sides by busy
roads," said Peter Chmiel, director at Grant Associates.
"Our aim is to
breathe new life into the area, providing attractive and functional public
spaces for existing residents and future resident to enjoy. We aim to improve
access to Tottenham Hale Station, and maximise the opportunity for active
frontages to enliven the public spaces by creating an attractive south and west
facing public square.
"In addition to
creating a focal point for Tottenham, this scheme is set to create employment
opportunities, as well as deliver much needed affordable housing and amenities
for the community. We’re very excited to be part of Tottenham’s transformational
plans.”
