The redevelopment scheme is part of the council's commitment to delivering 4,000 new affordable homes for rent to help tackle the borough’s housing crisis.

Lutfur Rahman, Executive Mayor of Tower Hamlets said: "Housebuilding is my number one priority and so it’s with much pleasure that we are moving forward on delivering this major scheme.

"I've made a strong commitment to delivering new homes for affordable rent and the Harriott, Apsley and Pattison re-development will make a big different to achieving our goal and providing the homes that residents in Tower Hamlets desperately want and deserve."

The development has been designed by architects PRP and building work is set to commence in summer 2025.
