8/5/24
The developer behind the ambitious £6bn redevelopment of Earl's Court in London has confirmed it will start construction in 2026.
Launching detailed plans for phase one, the Earls Court Development Company confirmed plans would be lodged this summer for phase one.
This will consist of major infrastructure works for the site and over 1,000 homes, the first cultural and commercial buildings, and the park.
Rob Heasman, CEO of ECDC, said: "Forging a new piece of city that is inclusive, climate resilient and brimming with opportunity is a great privilege.
In 2021, we shared a new vision to bring the wonder back to Earls Court, to ensure our plans for the future create unforgettable experiences, as in the past.
"Our plans have progressed and benefitted from continued open dialogue with a broad spectrum of community groups and stakeholders, as we bring forward a new piece of city that will have wide-reaching benefits for London.
There is no other central London site like this; this is our chance to build sustainably and innovatively for the future, ensuring that Earls Court is a place to discover wonder for generations to come."
