Plans submitted for 2,000 new homes in East London by JV partners

The Impact Partnership, a joint venture between Lendlease and The Crown Estate, has submitted plans for the final stage of development at Stratford Cross in East London.

The proposals would deliver around 2,000 new homes, along with a new public park, ground-floor retail space and improved walking and cycling routes connecting Stratford station, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and nearby neighbourhoods. The homes would include a mix of affordable and market housing, as well as student accommodation and co-living.

Subject to planning approval, construction is expected to get underway in 2028, with the final phase taking around three years to complete.

Jason Oliver, development director at Lendlease, said: “Stratford has evolved into one of London’s most dynamic destinations for culture, education, innovation and business. This final phase is about building on that success and creating a neighbourhood where people can live alongside the workplaces, institutions and attractions that have helped establish Stratford Cross as a unique part of East London.”
