RMA Architects' East Ham scheme set for green light

摘要

RMA Architects' proposals to redevelop the site of an east London market hall with 277 new homes and replacement shopping facilities has been cleared for approval by planning officers. Under the scheme, most of the current East Ham Market buildings on the 0.8ha site would be replaced with six new blocks, the tallest of which would be 15 storeys. RMA's design would deliver 2,714 sq m of new commercial space, some of which would be delivered by refurbishing the Kina House building, which will remain in place on the site. The building currently has ground-floor retail with 23 apartments above.
