Chrisp Street, Poplar E14

February 9, 2021

Earlier this week, the London Borough of Tower Hamlets (LBTH) made a compulsory purchase order (CPO) to secure designated properties as part of the redevelopment of Chrisp Street Market.

Considerable teamwork between LBTH and the Poplar HARCA/Telford Homes joint venture makes this a significant step towards revitalising an area at the core of London’s East End.

Proposed features include 649 homes (200 of which will be affordable housing), a large community hub and outdoor spaces as well as an improved retail sector which will retain the popular Chrisp Street Market.  

With specialist CPO skills, Askival has been a key part of the Poplar HARCA/Telford Homes team and we are delighted to have helped the project reach this significant milestone.
