Summary:
- Developer Areli and British Airways Pension Trustees received Tower Hamlets approval to replace a 17-storey 1990s office block with the UK’s largest integrated multi-tenure residential scheme at 77 Marsh Wall, combining build to rent, serviced apartments, co-living, intermediate, and social rented homes.
- Designed by Patel Taylor, the 190m concrete frame tower will include over 3,100 sq m of public open space, community gardens, nearly 200 sq m of community space, 430 sq m of retail, and resident amenities such as co-working areas, cinema, gym, swimming pool, and landscaped terraces.
- Areli estimates the project will generate around 2,200 construction jobs annually during building and 151 full-time operational roles post-completion; this marks Areli’s fourth major residential consent in 12 months, expanding its pipeline to nearly 3,000 homes.
