Homes and offices will be directly opposite flagship Whiteley development in Bayswater
Foster & Partners has been given the go-ahead to replace a run of 1950s shops and flats in west London with two seven-storey buildings featuring a mix of shops, offices and new homes.
The practice鈥檚 Queensway Parade scheme in Bayswater will be directly opposite its ongoing 拢1bn redevelopment of the grade II-listed former Whiteley鈥檚 department store, which Laing O鈥橰ourke is turning into a residential and hotel scheme.
Queensway Parade, for client MB (QW) Guernsey Ltd, will deliver a 10,978 sq m office building on the southernmost part of the site, at the junction of Queensway and Porchester Gardens.
Immediately north will be a residential block featuring 32 homes, 35% of which are earmarked to be 鈥渁ffordable鈥�. There are currently 27 flats on the site.
The scheme will also provide 11 new shops, but total floorspace for retail and restaurant use will fall by more than one-third to 2,216 sq m under the plans.
