Plans for 17-storey Abbey Wood housing block move forward

Plans have progressed for a series of blocks up to 17 storeys-tall in Greenwich, including nearly 500 co-living rooms and a hotel. Greenwich Council has received JMH Group's proposal for Eynsham Drive in Abbey Road, which includes 487 new co-living rooms and a 110-bedroom hotel. The application also features a gym and roof terraces. Several shared spaces in the buildings are also planned to be available to be used by local businesses and community groups. “The scheme will encourage pedestrian flow within the public realm and improve the pedestrian experience, provide a range of new high quality co-living accommodation, maximise views outwards and create new commercial opportunities at street level that will activate the streetscape", according to the planning documents.
