Cundy Street Quarter

Commissioned by Grosvenor and approved by Westminster City Council in June 2021, DSDHA’s masterplan and design brings a new sustainable mixed-use neighbourhood to central London.

The 1.77-hectare scheme provides 88 affordable homes, specialist senior living accommodation for up to 170 people and 75 open market homes. These are framed by new amenities and improved green spaces shaped by locals and introduce a flexible community hub, food store and cinema to the area.

Better living standards and green spaces are at the heart of our design, with affordable homes up to 50% larger than existing homes, cheaper to run, and with dedicated communal gardens and play spaces.

The proposals opens up new public routes across a closed off site dominated by car parking to deliver new public green space, bringing 65 additional trees and 27,000 sq ft of green and blue roofs, significantly enhancing local biodiversity and reducing water consumption.
