Camden Council’s Planning Committee has resolved to grant planning permission for masterplan proposals for the O2 Centre site in West Hampstead.
The AHMM scheme for developer Landsec will deliver around 1800 new homes for this part of north west London, 35% of which will be affordable, together with 180,000 square feet of retail, leisure and community space; the plans will create around 1000 new job opportunities for local people. Three large new public spaces and a linear park designed by landscape architect East will prioritise pedestrians and transform an expanse of car parking, with over 50% of the site to be dedicated to public realm.
The planning application – the largest in the borough since Kings Cross – is a hybrid with the detailed element consisting of three central plots containing 607 homes, a community centre, affordable workspace and small commercial units. The first phase will also include the delivery of a Central Square and the first stretch of the new linear park.
The remainder of the proposals will be delivered in outline and will be controlled through parameter plans and detailed design codes. The eastern part of the masterplan will increase permeability to Finchley Road opening on to a new Town Square. The western part of the masterplan connects to West End Lane and will provide a large community green space and a new health centre.
