City Road, Islington
Client - Fidelity Investments |
The City Road canal basin was recognised as an area with potential
for redevelopment, but multiple ownerships and complex technical
constraints had prevented development from happening.
In consultation with the local planning authority and other landowners,
Tibbalds encouraged our client City Road Limited, on behalf of Fidelity,
to lead a joint masterplanning exercise, to unlock the development
potential and secure comprehensive redevelopment.
We worked with Bennetts Architects, Squire and Partners and other
stakeholders to prepare:
•
|
a
design led masterplan framework and design guide, now adopted
by the local authority; |
| • |
a
detailed planning application for a key site, including a
35-storey residential tower and public spaces; |
| • |
a
delivery strategy, including a contributions framework, overarching
s.106 legal agreement and Special Purpose Vehicle to implement
off-site works; and |
| • |
a
bid to secure Growth Areas Funding for public spaces. |
