History
2018 May - The 37-storey residential tower as part of phase 1 topped out in early May. Cladding to the first tower nears completion, as it passes level 32. In the low rise buildings, the final units are approaching completion with the majority now handed over, and the first units occupied. Phase 1 on the Hammersmith & Chelsea side remains on programme to be completed in the summer of 2019, reported Farrells.
2015 - From mid-June in 2015 the site was unveiled as a glamorous new quarter, Chelsea Waterfront, with 706 homes in Phase 1.
The Lots Road Power Station was originally built to power London’s underground transport system. The largest ever built at its time, the Power Station made an important contribution to London’s development during the Victorian industrial age.
