This Project in Practice presentation explored the regeneration of one of east London’s largest estates, the Gascoigne Estate and its transformation into a 15-minute sustainable neighbourhood. The redeveloped estate will see new housing set within a landscape-led masterplan to enable the neighbourhood to become largely car free and one of the greenest and most sustainable in the capital. At the heart of the development is a 1.25-acre park, connected to a network of smaller squares and green corridors, which promote walking, reinforce existing routes and engage residents through informal play and ‘edible’ landscapes. The scheme also includes community space and retail, commercial space.
