Re:shape has acquired a second parcel of land in Woolwich town centre for its residential-led Electric Works development.
The development will comprise more than 918 purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) units, 410 co-living homes, 100 C3 affordable homes, including townhouses, a children’s nursery, community spaces, affordable workspace and nighttime economy uses.
A public consultation about the development is currently underway and Re:shape hopes to submit a planning application for the development in mid-October.
Jermaine Browne, co-founder of Re:shape, said: “The demand for alternative living options, urgent housing delivery, and genuinely affordable social homes has never been more pressing in the UK. As a recent entrant into the market with a clear mission to create new sustainable rental housing solutions for younger generations, re:shape is dedicated to enhancing the built environment, expanding housing choices for all salary levels, and showcasing the pivotal role SMEs can play to address national priorities.”
