Scheme is first part of 1,200-home Charlton Riverside development
Alan Camps Architects has received approval from the Building Safety Regulator to build 182 affordable homes in Greenwich nearly four years after it was granted planning permission.
The Eastmoor Street scheme is part of housing association Hyde’s Charlton Riverside development and is the organisation’s first project to pass the regulatory hurdle, introduced for higher-risk buildings in 2023.
Other architects working on the wider development include Fletcher Priest, SimpsonHaugh, Studio Egret West, Coffey Architects and BPTW.
Of the 182 homes proposed for Eastmoor Street, two-thirds are for social rent and the remaining third targeted at first-time buyers.
Hyde said it had worked closely with its contractor, Formation Design and Build, throughout the process to ensure a successful submission. Technical and construction architect on the scheme is A&Q Partnership.
“This approval is a testament to the dedication, expertise, and collaborative spirit of everyone involved in this project,” said Andy Hulme, group chief executive officer of the Hyde Group.
Eastmoor Street is Hyde’s first residential development at Charlton Riverside, where it has consent for around 1,200 homes, alongside new public spaces, community and commercial uses, and improved access to the riverfront and Thames Path.
The scheme was approved in 2022, at which point the first phase had been expected to complete by 2026.
