Construction company JJ Rhatigan has been selected for HUB’s Yardhouse mixed-tenure scheme in Wood Lane, West London, UK.
The scheme is being developed in partnership with Women’s Pioneer Housing (WPH), Bridges Fund Management, and Singapore-based real-estate developer City Developments.
To deliver this project, HUB and Bridges Fund Management signed an £88m ($108m) forward funding deal with City Developments.
HUB managing director Damien Sharkey said: “Yardhouse is a prime example for next-generation co-living, where we are delivering much-needed new homes and amenities, office space and improved public realm.
“The appointment of JJ Rhatigan is a huge step forward in delivering our vision.”
The £49m project is set to transform the current site, which houses WPH’s headquarters and 36 affordable homes, reported Construction News.
The redevelopment plan includes a 16-storey tower flanked by two six-storey wings.
The tower will feature 209 co-living apartments while the lower-rise structures will offer 60 affordable homes for single women, and a new office space for WPH.
At the ground level, the development will have a publicly accessible café and gym.
The appointment comes after the JJ Rhatigan/ABM joint venture was selected as the design-and-build contractor by NDFA on behalf of the UK’s Department of Education in November 2023.
The JV was selected for the first bundle of a programme called Project Nore.
