Nile Street
Client: Peabody
Nile Street is an innovative, high-density development in the London Borough of Hackney. When introduced to the scheme, our brief was to coordinate the purchase of the site before the end of the financial year.
By driving the project forward and working closely with the architects, planning officers, Blue Hut Youth Club committee, local residents and The Shoreditch Trust, Red Loft was able to acquire this site and achieve a planning consent within this challenging timescale.
The commitment to quality design, the real consultation with local stakeholders and the support of the local authority's planning and housing departments contributed significantly to the success of the scheme, which now provides 175 homes, a communal courtyard, roof gardens, a youth centre, a children's play ground and ball courts. Of the 175 new homes, 128 are affordable, either for general needs rent, key worker rent or low cost home ownership.
The Nile Street scheme won an award at the New Homes Awards 2006.
