Union Bridge
Key Details
Overview
Union Bridge is a mixed-use development on a 1.5-acre former BT depot site on Fish Island in Hackney Wick in London E9.
The development is built in two phases - Copper Yard (launched September 2022) and Hertford Mill (launch late 2022).
Copper Yard, the first chapter of Union Bridge, offers a contemporary collection of 1, 2 & 3 bedroom apartments across four buildings set around a central residents' garden, perfectly placed just moments from Hackney Wick rail station.
Located just west of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and a couple of hundred yards from Hackney Wick Station, the site has planning permission for 145 high-quality apartments across four new buildings, of which 50 will be affordable.
The plans also include 23,000 sq. ft of commercial space at ground level, fronting the public realm. The development will offer a number of facilities, including parking spaces and cycle storage as well as a 24-hour concierge, communal garden, balconies, and a residents’ viewing room.
The proposed development, designed by the leading architecture and interior design firm Carey Jones Chapman Tolcher (CJCT), promotes the ongoing urban renewal and regeneration of Hackney Wick, which has benefitted significantly from its proximity to the Olympic Park.
A key driver for the redevelopment of the site is to enhance the public realm locally around Fish Island and provide a new pedestrian route to the upgraded Hackney Wick Station. The route also reinstates a lost historic street and brings strong active street frontages around the site.
The scheme forms a key component of the London Legacy Development Corporation’s (LLDC) regenerative Masterplan for the area surrounding Hackney Wick Station - the Hackney Wick Fish Island Retrospective Masterplan - which in 2019 was recognised with the Planning Award for Placemaking at High Densities.
