Public consultation starts today on Stratford City masterplan by Fletcher Priest Architects and Arup Urban Design
The first images of the £2bn Olympic Athletes’ Village development at Stratford City have been released as part of a public consultation on the scheme.
Developers Lend Lease and partners First Base and East Thames today started a public consultation on the masterplan, which will house more than 17,000 athletes and officials during the 2012 Games. The village will then be converted into a residential community of 3800 homes, of which at least 30% will be affordable housing.
The masterplan was prepared by Fletcher Priest Architects and Arup Urban Design.
Lend Lease Europe chairman Nigel Hugill said: “The Athletes Village is a key part of east London’s 2012 legacy. We are determined to create something amazing.â€
Public comments will be passed on to the Olympic Delivery Authority planning decisions team, which is expected to issue a decision on the design in December.
