AHMM scheme gets Hackney council green light
AHMM has won planning consent for a four-building mixed-use development in east London鈥檚 Shoreditch district.
The former Stirling Prize winner鈥檚 proposals are the second phase of Brockton Capital鈥檚 Shoreditch Village scheme, between Shoreditch High Street and part of the elevated section of the East London Line.
The plans will see the demolition of one building in Anning Street and external alterations to a listed building in Shoreditch High Street.
The result will be four new buildings, rising in height from two to eight storeys as they progress west towards the railway line on the 0.3ha site. They will deliver around 9,000sq m of new office and retail space.
The latest scheme, which builds on a 2013 approval for proposals created by EllisMiller, also includes a new passage link from Shoreditch High Street to the site鈥檚 public realm which is expected to include a street market.
Recommending the AHMM plans for approval, Hackney council planning officers said they were a 鈥渉igh-quality contextual response to the surrounding townscape鈥� and would enhance the setting of nearby listed buildings.
