About this project
The Olympic Development Authority in association with Lend Lease selected DCM from a panel of eight to design this signature project: Plot No. 1 of 12 athletes’ residential plots for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Located on a high-profile site in Stratford with prime views over Regent’s Canal to Canary Wharf and the City of London, the project contains eight blocks of 288-two-and-three-bedroom apartments of market and premium standard.
The apartments have been designed for temporary accommodation purposes, but after initial use were able to be re-fitted for private sale as high quality residential properties close to central London.
DCM prepared the design in accordance with the guidelines set for all 12 Plots and worked through the Olympic Delivery Authority’s continuous review panel process.
Plot No. 1 achieved the highest overall sustainability score across the entire Athletes’ Village.
