The development, close to West Silvertown DLR, aims to transform an underutilised industrial brownfield site into a mixed-use neighbourhood, delivering 1,667 homes, including affordable housing and a strong proportion of family homes. More than 11,000 sq m of light industrial and flexible workspace is also provided, ensuring the site retains its productive character while supporting new residential uses.聽
The scheme, designed by Allies & Morrison, seeks to extend and enrich Ballymore鈥檚 neighbouring developments Royal Wharf and Riverscape, a 4,100 home community with primary school, public park, high street and new riverside connections.
At Knights Road, over 10,000 sqm of new public realm and 8,000 sqm of communal open space will be delivered, structured around a network of routes and connections that prioritise walking and cycling, and activate ground floor frontages to support local businesses and everyday community life.聽
As part of the proposals, Ballymore has committed 拢1m of ring-fenced investment towards improvements to Lyle Park, a valued local green space managed by Newham Council.
This approval follows Ballymore securing planning consent in January 2026 for its nearby Thames Road scheme, close to the Thames Barrier, a 1,685-home mixed-use development including a new primary school, over 13,500 sq m of workspace and new riverside public realm.聽
