Proposals by DLA Architecture filed with Greenwich council this week
London developer Re:Shape has submitted plans for a 1,500-home regeneration scheme in Woolwich.
The DLA Architecture-designed proposals for 918 student homes, 420 co-living units and 110 affordable homes were lodged with Greenwich council earlier this week.
The scheme consists of a cluster of buildings including two towers surrounding the historic Electric Works building, which will be retained under the plans fronting a new public square.
DLA associate director Charles Jabre said the practice’s design approach had been inspired by the historic architecture of Woolwich, a former military and industrial area which is now undergoing significant regeneration.
