Buro Happold UNLOCKING SITES BATTERSEA Battersea Regeneration, London, UK Buro Happold has been appointed by the Battersea Power Station Development Company to provide multidisciplinary engineering design and consultancy to Phase one of the redevelopment of Battersea Power Station. We are delivering structural and civil engineering, as well as specialist facades, fire, Inclusive Design, security and water engineering on this major urban regeneration project situated on 38 acres of prime development land, within a mile of central London. Scheduled for completion in 2024, the overall scheme, London’s biggest ever planning application, will provide over 8million sq ft of mixed use development, within and around the landmark building, including 3,400 new homes. Phase one of the development, Circus West, comprises 1million sq ft of high end residential development, 800 homes in all. A ground floor retail and leisure zone and two levels of below ground parking are also included. Early development will improve riverside access, providing a pedestrian route to Battersea Park. It will also survey and repair the fabric of the iconic Grade II listed building. Design development is already proceeding with basement construction expected to commence in the summer of 2013. This sensitive site has long been targeted for development, but the search for a project which protects the iconic property, without compromising commercial sustainability, has been long and challenging. Our expertise in the development of listed and protected sites has been a vital ingredient in the development of the scheme which will anchor the wider regeneration of the Vauxhall Nine Elms Battersea Opportunity Area and be supported by a Northern Line extension, including two new stations: Nine Elms and Battersea Power Station.

UNLOCKING Buro Happold SITES THE BOTANY Mission Bay Block 13W, San Francisco, CA, USA The Botany, Maryhill, Glasgow, UK The Botany area of Maryhill, Glasgow got its name from the large number of travellers, destined for Botany Bay, who passed through the area in the early 19th century. It had long suffered many of the problems associated with social deprivation; including high unemployment, crime and poor health when the local authority approved a regeneration plan to breathe new life into the 18 hectare site. The scheme will eventually create more than 700 new homes – a mixture of high quality social rented and private housing on the banks of the Forth and Clyde Canal. Buro Happold were commissioned to provide the multidiscipline engineering services for the first phase of the project, creating 35 new homes for Maryhill Housing Association. This 163 acre brownfield site is being developed as part of the FOCUS regeneration programme which promotes ‘infill developments’ to provide improved housing and transportation to all residents and enhance existing neighbourhoods in and around the San Francisco bay. Targeted at urban professionals, the Block 13W development is located within a large new parkland area, just a few blocks from the Giants AT&T Park. Due for completion in 2014, it will comprise 273 market rate residential units spread across a 16-storey tower on the west and a five story podium on the eastern two thirds of the site. The properties include 2, 3 and 4 bedroom apartments, designed to maximise daylight and the occupants contact with the natural landscape. The designs were developed in response to workshops involving local community members and waiting list tenants. The Maryhill Locks scheme has been awarded ‘Scottish Sustainable Community Status’ by the Scottish Government. Aiming to create places which raise standards in design and sustainability, this project has now started to transform the derelict land on the edge of the Forth and Clyde Canal, with new homes, shops, leisure and commercial spaces and community facilities.

The tower provides a point of focus in the 5th Street corridor, forming the apex of the Merrimac Street axis, while the podium brings the development down to a pedestrian scale, creating a street edge reminiscent of many residential streets in San Francisco.
