News Archive - June 2009Revised Masteplan for Power Station Unveiled RAFAEL VIŇOLY’S advanced masterplan for the Battersea Power Station site went on display this month. It is a year since the first public exhibition, and since then the masterplan has evolved to take account of the feedback. The revised plans ensure that no other building on the site will be taller than the shoulders of the Power Station, and that it remains a dramatic centrepiece of the scheme, particularly in views from around the site and from across the river. The Power Station’s iconic presence on the site is also accentuated by reflecting pools surrounding the building. This creates space to stand back and appreciate the art deco structure, which will itself be converted into offices, shops, restaurants and homes. The full scheme includes around 3,700 new homes, 1.5 million sqft of office floorspace, 500,000 sqft of retail, restaurants, a hotel, leisure space and community facilities. It is this mix of uses that is essential to delivering an active place that will bring life to the area, says owner Real Estate Opportunities. It will also act as a catalyst to the regeneration of the Nine Elms area, which will be enhanced by the plans to extend the Northern Line from Kennington through to Battersea Power Station. « |
