McAleer & Rushe has secured a £130 million contract from developer Quintain to deliver 533 new homes as part of the second phase of the South West Lands development.
The contractor has been appointed following the successful award of the first phase of works, worth £55m, which is due to be completed in Q3 2019.
The £130m contract marks McAleer & Rushe's third deal at Wembley Park, with the firm also on site delivering a 312-bedroom Premier Inn hotel scheduled for completion in summer 2018.
Of the 533 new homes, 144 will be made 'affordable'. Other features to be built include an onsite gym, library, resident's lounge and concierge service leading out to a podium garden.
