Lot No: 1Lot title: 291 Harrow Road

1)Short description

291 Harrow Road is a new build project to provide a mixed environment of special needs housing and general needs housing within this single development. In terms of the specialist housing element the purpose is to re provide for the people who are currently living at 291 Harrow Rd and 1-2 Elmfield Way whose existing accommodation is no longer fit for purpose.
This will be achieved by demolishing the current provision and creating units of supported accommodation for people with a learning disability and physical disability, units of supported accommodation for people with autism and units for people with complex needs. This will be achieved through a staged process so that the existing residents do not need to move to alternative accommodation off site.
The new housing will help to meet the increasing demand in the City of Westminster for these resident groups, with the number of supported housing units on site increasing from 19 to 27. The City of Westminster is moving from a residential care model to individual tenancies in the supported housing it provides. In order for this strategy to be applied, the housing provided will take the form of self-contained residential units, with adjacent communal and support accommodation.
The second main purpose of the development is the provision of intermediate rental housing, in response to the identified need for additional affordable housing in this area of Westminster.
The final purpose of the project is to improve community uses, which is to be achieved via the re-provision of enhanced specialist housing on site, as well as the creation of new permanent publically-accessible play space and a ball games areas.

Lot No: 2Lot title: Lisson Arches

1)Short description

This site forms part of the Church Street Housing Renewal area which was identified as one of the priority neighbourhoods in the Westminster Housing Renewal Strategy launched in March 2010.
The proposals provide an opportunity for the design (post planning) and construction of a mixed use development comprising 58 one bedroom self-contained sheltered housing apartments and 1 two bedroom manager’s apartment (planning use class C3) with communal facilities, including a manager’s office; guest suite; laundry room; kitchen/lounge/dining room; and a landscaped roof terrace. The development also comprises 1,325m² of Enterprise office (planning use class B1) space and a centralised energy centre including CHP plant.
The scheme ranges from 11-13 storeys for the residential element, reducing to 2-3 storeys for the Enterprise element. The range in heights is due to the site flanking two streets at varying levels, being Lisson Grove and Bernhardt Crescent.
The scheme is to be constructed in a single phase with the residential element fully fitted-out and the non-residential element fitted-out to Category A.
