Phase two of the 13 ha village, designed by architect Proctor Matthews, comprises 88 apartments, 14 maisonettes and 25 houses.
Its apartment blocks, which rise to eight stories, feature external facades in render, terracotta and cedar, and make extensive use of balconies and conservatories. Sliding walls in the apartments can be moved to alter the floorplan.
Structural engineer is Waterman Partnership, services engineer is WSP and QS is WT.
Meanwhile, HTA Architects has increased its first phase from 99 units to 106 and resubmitted it for planning approval. The firm has also reoriented one of the two blocks in the first phase to face the River Thames.
HTA Architects’ revised phase one and Proctor Matthews’ phase two will go before a Greenwich council planning board on 19 July. New design guidelines for the 1377-unit village, prepared by masterplan architect Ralph Erskine, are also due to be submitted to this board.
A spokesman for contractor the Greenwich Millennium Village Company, a joint venture between Countryside Properties and Taylor Woodrow, said the much-delayed landmark scheme would start on site this autumn.
