Tottenham Housing Project Reaches Key Milestone
The first phase of a major housing development in Tottenham Hale has reached the highest point of construction.
A traditional topping out ceremony took place at the Hale Wharf site, with , Waterside Places in attendance along with partners, Grainger plc and McLaren Construction.
Hale Wharf is being delivered by Waterside Places – a strategic joint venture between Canal & River Trust and one of the UK's most innovative urban regenerators, Muse Developments, in partnership with the Mayor of London and London Borough of Haringey.
The wider Hale Wharf scheme is one of the Mayor of London's Housing Zones, and with 505 homes being delivered, it will make an important contribution to the mayor and the Greater London Authority's aspiration for 2,000 new homes in the borough.
The first phase of the development consists of 249 new homes, 108 for rent through Grainger plc, with the remainder earmarked for sale through Waterside Places. A new pedestrian bridge over the River Lee Navigation will be built, providing convenient access to Tottenham Hale Underground station, along with stunning canal-side public realm to benefit what will be a vibrant new community.
Mike Auger, director at Waterside Places said: "It's a proud moment for everyone involved with the scheme, as we come together to celebrate the incredible progress of the first phase of homes here at Hale Wharf. The excitement is building further, as we now look forward to welcoming new residents at what we truly believe will be one of most diverse and mindful neighbourhoods around.
"Successful developments that bring forward real transformational change are delivered through a collaborative approach which is really showcased in this project and its focus on social value."
John Butten, McLaren's managing director – major projects, added: "We are pleased to celebrate the topping out of Hale Wharf in Tottenham Hale with customers Waterside Places and Grainger plc. Linking in with the local community of Haringey is key for McLaren and we look forward to playing an important part in the development of an inspiring new place for north Londoners.
"We have committed to employ 30% of our workforce through local labour, generating jobs for local people and feel proud to have been able to contribute to so many community engagement initiatives in the local area through the Tottenham Charter."
The first phase of Hale Wharf is due to complete Summer 2021.
