One Housing to go ahead with Isle of Dogs regeneration scheme

One Housing Group’s plan to demolish and rebuild an estate in London’s Docklands have been backed by residents in a ballot. The company, which merged with Riverside last month, plans to build 347 homes on Stewart Street on the Isle of Dogs. More than four out of five resident voters, 82%, backed the proposals. Under the plans, which have not yet been developed in detail, two existing blocks and a community centre containing 84 homes will be demolished. A new development, likely to comprise three towers, will be built along with a new community facility. Of the 347 homes, 96 will be for affordable tenures, made up of 67 for social rent and 29 for shared ownership. One Housing will now begin the detailed design of the scheme with architect PRP and will appoint a delivery partner ahead of a planning application.
