Mixed use development at Wick Lane, Hackney featured in architectural press
We were very pleased to see articles about the mixed-use development at 415 Wick Lane, Hackney featuring recently in both the AJ and Architecture Today. Designed by dRMM Architects for Taylor Wimpey, it integrates a mix of light industrial units, retail and workspaces together with 175 new homes into a series of buildings set around new yards and lanes.
Set immediately to the south of Hackney Wick and Fish Island, a vibrant area now characterised by a rich mix of light industry, creative and artists workspaces, cultural uses, and residential, it picks up on the distinctive local character of the area.
The site immediately adjoins a greenway that runs along the embankment of Bazalgette’s Northern Outfall Sewer with Fish Island’s Victorian warehouses arranged around streets and yard just to the north of it, all within the Fish Island & White Post Lane Conservation Area.
Tibbalds were delighted to provide heritage advice on a scheme that enhances the character and appearance of the Conservation Area.
We visited it on a recent study trip to some of our projects, including developments in Hackney Wick Central, and enjoyed the pedestrian-friendly spaces and vibrant architecture.
It’s good to see it being shared more widely now in the press!
The design team were dRMM, Grant Associates, AECOM and Pinnacle ESP
