Hackney Council has chosen Ardmore to oversee the final phase of the Britannia project, a residential-focused redevelopment in Shoreditch Park<\/h2>\n

The Britannia project contract is valued at \u00a3154m, and Ardmore will build 371 new housing units in four newly constructed residential buildings, some of which will be 25 stories.<\/p>\n

The development will feature 81 affordable homes for social rent and shared ownership, supported by the sale of 290 private homes. The profit from the private homes will also fund a new leisure centre and a secondary school with a capacity for 1,100 students, both of which have already been completed as part of the project.<\/p>\n

What will the Britannia Project feature?<\/h3>\n

Residents of the development will enjoy shared landscaped gardens, rooftop terraces, new retail and commercial spaces, bicycle storage facilities, well-designed public areas, and close proximity to the newly constructed Britannia Leisure Centre<\/a> and City of London Academy Shoreditch Park.<\/p>\n

Ardmore has an extensive track record in delivering large-scale residential-led regeneration projects, including the Parkside scheme in Lewisham, which features 1,000 units, and Phase 4a of Battersea Power Station, which has 387 units.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are delighted to have been appointed to deliver this critical part of the Britannia masterplan,\u201d said Ardmore director, James Byrne.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am especially pleased that Hackney has shown such confidence in us to deliver one of their most prestigious schemes. Over the last few months, we\u2019ve already managed to build a strong working relationship with Hackney and their design team to help bring the buildings in line with the highest safety standards without any compromise in quality,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n

Increasing biodiversity in Hackney<\/h3>\n

The plans will increase biodiversity<\/a> by replacing 65 removed trees with 100 new ones within ten years. They also include a new public square, improved walking and cycling routes, and 1,000 additional cycle parking spaces.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough the Council\u2019s Britannia flagship project, we are already seeing the benefits of the biggest public sector investment in the area in a generation,\u201d said Philip Glanville, the mayor of Hackney<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s also an example of how we\u2019re overcoming funding challenges to provide the high-quality facilities and infrastructure that Hackney residents deserve, directly delivered by the Council and serving some of the most challenged parts of our borough,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n
