Muse Developments and Poplar HARCA have gained approval to deliver a new affordable housing development at Stroudley Walk in Bromley-by-Bow
The approval from the London Borough of Tower Hamlets development committee will bring forward 274 homes, with a 51% affordable housing provision.
The approved plans, designed by Regeneration Masterplan Architects (RMA), focus heavily on creating a safe and thriving, vibrant neighbourhood, and include a new pocket park and part-pedestrianised street, with business and retail spaces for the Poplar community to enjoy.
Opportunity to provide much-needed housing
Rebecca Lewis, senior development manager at Muse Developments, said: “Our development at Stroudley Walk with Poplar HARCA, provides a real opportunity for us to provide much-needed affordable homes coupled with extensive public realm upgrades, to create a diverse and safe place for all.
“This site in Bromley-by-Bow has had a lengthy history and has unfortunately been neglected over the years.
“However, it can now look forward to a truly bright future with a scheme that brings investment, new homes and business opportunities right into the heart of the community.”
Paul Dooley, director of development and regeneration at Poplar HARCA, said: “The changes brought about through the redevelopment of Stroudley Walk will transform this somewhat forgotten part of Bromley-by-Bow.
“Stroudley Walk has a unique and rich history, having close links to both the suffragette movement and Mahatmas Ghandi.
“We look forward to making a big, positive difference to many local families lives by building new, affordable homes and creating safe and welcoming community space in this very special part of east London.”
