Wickside is a £120m ?permeable, mixed-use neighborhood? that will provide 475 homes and 300 jobs for the surrounding community. Designed by BUJ Architects and Ash Sakula Architects, the neighborhood has recently received the all-clear from the LLDC planning committee. Almost nine years in the making, the scheme uses ?urban blocks set around ordinary London streets? to create a complex, diverse townscape with a variety of uses. The neighborhood is housed within a 28,800 square meter former waste transfer site in Hackney Wick, London. Integrating the context?s existing buildings and cultural heritage, Wickside aims to develop the existing creative community through ?retention and regeneration,? and is one of the largest development sites in the area.
