PRP was appointed by the London Borough of Tower Hamlets to submit a detailed planning application for Harriot, Apsley and Pattison Houses in Stepney. The proposed regeneration will provide approximately 412 much needed new homes within a sustainable community, which includes a replacement mosque.

A key design element of the scheme is a crucial north-south link that runs through the centre of the site, along with 2 significant landscaped courtyards for the enjoyment of residents. The proposals incorporate continuous street frontage along all streets, improving passive surveillance and ensuring a feeling of safety and encouraging neighbourliness.

The new estate comprises a series of mid-rise blocks set within new public realm, landscape, and accessible, healthy streets. The public realm will comprise a mix of social spaces, designed to serve all generations and including diverse planting to promote biodiversity.
