Plot covers final 16 acres of 42 acre site
Studio Egret West has been appointed to masterplan the final phases of work at the Battersea Power Station development.
The work covers the remaining 16 acres of the 42 acre site and has the potential to deliver up to 3.2 million sq ft of residential, commercial, cultural and leisure space.
The final phases of Battersea Power Station will connect to the new Nine Elms Park, a 14 acre green space running from Vauxhall, through Nine Elms and concluding at the riverfront Power Station Park.
Sam Cotton, interim chief executive of Battersea Power Station Development Company, said: “Having achieved so much already in delivering this project, it is hard to believe that we are only halfway through.
“With the appointment of Studio Egret West, we are pressing the start button on the delivery programme for the final phases of Battersea Power Station, having tasked them to ensure that what’s still to come at this development reflects the vision and ambition of our shareholders for the riverside neighbourhood, while reflecting the changes in technology and society since it was conceived.”
And David West, founding director of Studio Egret West, said: “Our work on the remaining c.50% of the neighbourhood will build upon the site’s remarkable legacy and seek to extend its cultural, commercial and community significance at both local and London levels.”
The power station was bought by its current Malaysian shareholders in 2012 and has seen over 2,200 homes and 800,000sq ft of office space built along with 150 retail, dining and leisure experiences.
