Wayman Court Development Proposal- Final Exhibition
Overview
Hackney Council is continuing its housing programme to deliver around 400 new homes across 14 locations, including Wayman Court. This programme, consulted on in November last year, is part of our ongoing commitment to start building or support the construction of 1,000 new homes for social rent by 2026. Across the programme, 75% of the new homes will be council homes for social rent, prioritised for local residents with established housing needs. Our goal remains to address the housing shortage and provide high-quality, genuinely affordable homes to those in need.
The Wayman Court site has been identified as a potential location for new homes without the demolition of existing ones, alongside wider improvements to the neighbourhood.
In the summer of 2022, we discussed proposals with local residents to replace the car park and garages at Wayman Court with new homes. Since then, the Council’s Cabinet has approved the plan to work with a design team and residents to develop detailed plans for the new homes on these estates.
We have appointed the following design team and specialist consultants:
Architects: Balaam Murphy
Landscape Designers: LDA Design
Cost Consultant: Exigere
Planning Consultant: HTA Planning
Multi-disciplinary Engineering Consultant: XCO2
Most of our design team members have lived or worked in Hackney for many years. They bring diverse backgrounds and cultures and are excited to collaborate with the community on these much-needed new homes and improvements.
