Next phase of Southwark’s Aylesbury Estate regen set for approval

Southwark Council has been recommended to approve Notting Hill Genesis’ plans to develop 614 homes in phase 2B of the Aylesbury Estate regeneration. The scheme, which forms part of a wider masterplan to deliver 3,500 new homes, is due to be completed by 2036. The proposals have been altered from the initial 2015 Aylesbury Estate masterplan and now include a range one to five-bedroom homes across five buildings ranging from five to 26 storeys. The redevelopment includes 50% affordable homes, 75% of which will be offered for social rent and 25% for shared ownership. It also includes 43,000 sq ft of open space and 35,000 sq ft of play space. Phase 2B has been designed by lead architect Maccreanor Lavington alongside plot architects Haworth Tompkins, Sergison Bates, East and Architecture Doing Place. Separately, the planning committee is also set to approve Native Land’s proposals for an 18-storey office and retail building at its Bankside Yards development, SE1, in the same meeting.   To send feedback, e-mail akanksha.soni@eg.co.uk or tweet @AkankshaEG or @EGPropertyNews
