PLP Architecture provided the masterplan for the entire scheme. The second phase, named Eastern Yards, will be constructed on the former site of Sampson House.
The second phase will feature five towers housing 341 residential units, with 37 affordable homes, a luxury hotel and office and cultural amenities, along with a series of public spaces. The developer initially secured consent to construct 232 homes in this phase.
Native Land chief-executive Alasdair Nicholls said: “This new planning consent will create a true mixed-use development which brings London together, with new east-west pedestrian routes, multiple transport links, a new village high street in the arches and new town square for Bankside, overlooking the river.”
Construction is underway on the scheme’s first phase, Western Yards, with completion set for 2023.
