The Pickstock Group, a UK-based company, has obtained a resolution to grant a new 355-unit residential scheme located at 68-70 Stratford High Street in London, UK, following Newham’s planning committee decision on 18 March.
The upcoming residential project will feature 272 apartments and 83 affordable homes, complete with rooftop amenities that offer views of Canary Wharf and the Olympic Park.
The riverside project will focus on enhancing security and feature a café, performance space, and a public park with a playground.
The Pickstock Group will undertake the development and proceed to work to finalise the Section 106 agreement with the London Borough of Newham Council and seek Stage 2 approval from the Greater London Authority (GLA).
The site, previously occupied by a Porsche dealership, is situated near the Pudding Mill master-planned area, developed by the London Legacy Development Corporation.
The location offers key access for commuters, with the Pudding Mill Docklands Light Railway (DLR) station 500m away and Stratford Station within a ten-minute walk, providing underground and rail connections throughout London and beyond.
