Kier has been appointed to start construction in March 2022 of 142 new Peabody affordable homes at Macfarlane Place at the old BBC Television Centre. The company has been appointed by the JV of Stanhope, Mitsui Fudosan and AIMCo.

Delivery is expected in early 2024.

The buildings form part of the wider Television Centre development which will eventually have around 950 homes in total. Stanhope is the development manager for Television Centre.

Designed by Maccreanor Lavington Architects, the new buildings will replace the now demolished former BBC multi-storey car park on Wood Lane, W12, opposite Westfield. The new buildings will provide 71 London Affordable Rent, 34 London Living Rent and 37 homes for Shared Ownership.

Peabody will be responsible for managing the homes when completed. The JV is working closely with Transport for London, which owns the adjacent arches below the elevated Hammersmith & City line, to help improve the wider area for the local community.

Jonathan Trout, Property & Commercial Director at Stanhope says: “Construction of 142 affordable homes and the ongoing construction of a new office building at 1 Wood Crescent, Television Centre, shows the healthy state of the property market in White City and Shepherd’s Bush. We are looking forward to working with Kier and delivering much needed affordable homes for residents in Hammersmith & Fulham alongside Peabody who share our confidence and long-term commitment for the area.”
