We are pleased to announce that our Silk Park project, designed in collaboration with Hutchinson + Partners with landscape architects Murdoch Wickham, has been shortlisted for the World Architecture Festival in the Residential Future Projects category.

Silk Park is a major landmark project for St. George and Sainsbury’s Property Investments. It transforms what is currently a standard big-box store surrounded by tarmac into a new 2-acre neighbourhood park open to the Silk Stream, a newly activated street frontage with a new supermarket and elevated gardens above as well as providing 1,309 mixed-tenure dwellings.

Located in Hendon on a site adjacent to the A5, the proposals contribute to the aspirations of Barnet, Brent, Harrow and TFL to reimagine this historic route into London as a pedestrian-friendly urban boulevard and green residential corridor that seeks to augment and connect the surrounding green network, notably through the revitalisation of the Silk Stream and its tributaries.

The first phase of the project is due to be completed by November 2024, with full completion by 2029.

The winner will be announced at the World Architecture Festival on the 1st-3rd of December 2021.
