Pembury Circus is a high-quality regeneration led residential scheme comprising 268 new apartments, delivered for Bellway Homes and Peabody Trust, next to Hackney Downs station.
The new mixed-tenure apartments are spread across five medium-rise buildings, and the mix includes studios, apartments and town houses. As part of the scheme we also delivered a purpose build community centre and extensive commercial space.
Key features included a site wide district heating system from low carbon energy centre with gas fired CHP, fast-track concrete construction, and CfSH Level 4.
Community engagement and local recruitment has been at the forefront of the scheme, with 10 local apprentices recruited through our pre-apprenticeship programme.
We also helped Peabody and the Evening Standard start the ‘Ladders for London’ campaign, which was launched at Pembury Circus. One of the apprentices engaged on the site through our pre-apprenticeship programme, Shaquan Carmichael, was recognised as ‘Apprentice of the Year’ at the Mayors Fund for London Awards.
