TAPESTRY BUILDING PROGRESS

MARCH 2015

Tapestry Building Progress

Looking south from the roof garden, the view is framed by the ‘beak’ of the building looking south over Regents Canal and out towards the BT tower.

The concrete frame of the Tapestry (T1) building is approaching completion, with just two more floors to be constructed. This space on the 8th floor will become an outdoor roof garden enclosed either side by two level ‘townhouses’ and a tower to the north. The area will be open to residents and landscaped with trees and gardens.

PEABODY HOUSING STARTS ON SITE

OCTOBER 2012

Peabody Housing Starts on Site

Niall McLaughlin Architects’ housing project in Whitechapel for the Peabody Trust will start on site at the end of the month. The project makes use of an infill site on the existing Victorian Peabody Trust estate.  The scheme completes the courtyard enclosure formed by the existing blocks whilst retaining ‘open corners’.  This strategy prompts easy pedestrian access and views between the courtyard and surrounding streets.
