Cross over to Abbey Wood

18th November 2016

HUB Group has submitted plans for a mixed-use development at Abbey Wood in Greenwich, totalling 280,000 sq ft of commercial space centred around a 29-storey residential tower. A total of 208 homes will be built should the Shedkm-designed scheme get planning approval, with work planned to start next summer. When Crossrail opens, Abbey Wood will just be three stops, or eleven minutes, away from Canary Wharf. Separately, developer Knight Dragon has pointed toward the Greenwich Peninsula, as an area of “change, dynamism and opportunity”. The firm is currently building 15,720 homes across the Thames from Canary Wharf as part of a plan designed to create a 34,000-strong community with 13,000 job opportunities and £500m worth of public and social spaces.
