Stanhope property & commercial director Jonathan Trout said: “Construction of 142 affordable homes and the ongoing construction of a new office building at 1 Wood Crescent, Television Centre, shows the healthy state of the property market in White City.
“We are looking forward to working with Kier and delivering much needed affordable homes for residents in Hammersmith & Fulham alongside Peabody who share our confidence and long-term commitment for the area.”
Stanhope is serving as the development manager for Television Centre, which will comprise about 950 homes in total, while Cantillon acted as the demolition contractor for the multi-storey car park.
In order to improve the wider area for the local community, the JV is working with Transport for London which owns the adjacent arches below the elevated Hammersmith & City line.
