Blackwall Reach | September 2020 | issue 40
Phase 3 consultation event The latest plans for the Blackwall Reach consultation will be available to view in the windows at The Reach Community Hub and online at www.blackwallreachcommunity.co.uk from 23 September. This phase will redevelop Mackrow Walk and the remaining Robin Hood Gardens building . It will include 315 new residential homes (50% affordable) across two main blacks with landscaped public space and complete the improvements to Millennium Green (started in phase 2).
On 30 September the Project Team, architects and consultants will be holding two digital consultation events between 10am-11am and 7pm-8pm. A live link to these online events will be shared on www.blackwallreachcommunity.co.uk just before they begin. The team will present the plans and be available to answer any questions you may have and record your feedback. The sessions will be recorded and available to watch on request.
Development update Construction on phase 1B and phase 2 of Blackwall Reach site reopened on 8 June 2020 following a pause in work on site during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. The site teams have experienced ongoing issues caused by the pandemic with many sub-contractor staff furloughed and disruption to the supply chain. This will affect project completion dates and we now anticipate that the new homes in Phase 2 will be finished in Spring 2022. We understand that this delay is disappointing for the residents waiting to move into their new home, but we do hope that you understand this year has presented us all with many unprecedented challenges.
