Practice adds five storeys to estate-regeneration scheme centrepiece for Mount Anvil and One Housing

HTA Design is set to get the go-ahead for updated proposals for an east London estate regeneration scheme, drawn up for developer Mount Anvil and affordable housing provider One Housing.

The practice won consent to delver a 26-storey tower and low-rise houses and flats on a site bounded by Byng Street and Manilla Street on the Isle of Dogs last year. That scheme required the demolition of 24 houses and flats currently on the 0.3ha site south of Canary Wharf, and would have delivered 148 new properties.

HTA’s updated proposals increase the height of the tower to 31 storeys and would deliver a total of 202 new homes – including replacement properties for those currently on the L-shaped site, next to Pilbrow & Partners’ consented Alpha Square development. The tallest element of that scheme is 65 storeys.
