Foster + Partners-designed scheme will deliver 900 homes

Berkeley South Quay

Berkeley Homes has submitted plans to Tower Hamlets council for a 73-storey residential tower on London鈥檚 Isle of Dogs.

The tower, designed by architect Foster + Partners, would be accompanied by a smaller tower of 36-storeys and the whole scheme would provide 900 homes.

The scheme was under consultation between June 2012 and February 2014 and was, according to Berkeley, 鈥渨ell received鈥� by stakeholders.

Harry Lewis, managing director at Berkeley Homes (South East London) Ltd, said the submission of the plans were the 鈥渃ulmination of over a year of hard work by the project team鈥� on a 鈥渨orld class development鈥�.

He added: 鈥淲e will provide much needed new homes, including new affordable homes, over an acre of new and enhanced public open space, a re-activated waterfront onto South Dock and the Millwall Cutting, as well as space for retail, bars and restaurants. This is a rare opportunity to deliver such significant, high quality public realm in Canary Wharf.鈥�
