Regenerating a brownfield site into a mixed-use community in inner London

Hunts Wharf

When Restoration London was looking to unlock the potential of a tight brownfield site and release its value, our team was there to help. We took the project from concept and developed design to technical design and finally on to completion.

We provided the utility, energy and mechanical, engineering, and plumbing (MEP) designs for this project. The former brownfield site is bordered by a network rail asset and fronts the River Lea. It also has a Thames Water trunk sewer running through the development. As a complex and sensitive site, this presented some challenging design constraints to address. The site also housed two adjoining warehouses which required demolition. Working with the project manager, Potter Raper, we delivered utilities, energy studies, MEP, BREEAM and acoustic services from planning through to completion and Royal Institute of British Architects Stage 6 handover.

Now complete, the new Hunts Wharf building boasts 32 residential units above ground floor as well as mezzanine B1 commercial class space.
