Regal’s proposals for 100 Avenue Road

Regal have now submitted an application to Camden Council to amend the existing, approved 100 Avenue Road planning permission.
This submission follows an extensive consultation period over the course of the last eight months, whereby key stakeholders and members of the community were invited to let us know their thoughts on the updated plans. This included two rounds of community engagement, political and community group meetings, pre-application engagement with Camden Council, a Design Review Panel and a Development Forum presentation.

Our proposals

Our submitted plans for the redevelopment of 100 Avenue Road continue to retain the same height and massing envelope of the approved scheme, but will offer:

237 new homes in a sustainable location close to public transport links, and local shops and services.
35% critically needed affordable homes to be managed by a housing association.
New ground floor commercial space and new community space for The Winch that better serves the operational needs of the charity.
An attractive design that uses brick to better reflect the surrounding area.
A development that meets the latest fire safety legislation with the inclusion of additional stairwells.
A more environmentally sustainable development that seeks to deliver a gas-free, net zero scheme with low energy demand.
A community-driven approach to public open spaces and landscaping, including new multifunctional outdoor spaces, different seating areas, an area for play and rooftop amenity spaces, as well as extensive tree planting and greening throughout the development, providing opportunities for biodiversity.
New employment opportunities throughout construction and future commercial premises alongside significant investment and expenditure in the local area during construction and following completion.

We will continue to provide updates on our proposals on this website throughout the duration of the application.

You can view the submitted plans and make comments online via Camden Council’s website www.camden.gov.uk using the reference number 2025/0852/P.

Non Material Amendment Application

We have recently submitted a non-material amendment application to London Borough of Camden Council for the approved 100 Avenue Road permission.

This application seeks only to alter and simplify the description of development and impose a new condition which contains the specific residential unit numbers, building storey heights and the quantum of floorspace which is proposed to be removed from the description, ahead of the submission of the Section 73 application.

For more information, the application can be found on Camden’s website here using the following application number: 2024/5432/P

Stopping Up Order

For your information, we have recently submitted a Section 247 Stopping Up Order to the London Borough of Camden.

A Stopping Up Order has been applied for to close areas of highway around the 100 Avenue Road site to allow for its redevelopment. The majority of the footway width will remain the same. You can see the areas of highway proposed to be closed in the Stopping Up Plan here.

This Stopping Up Order relates to the existing permission and approved development, and has been considered necessary by Camden Council to regularise the consented scheme. If you have any queries about the Stopping Up Order, please get in touch with the team.

If you would like to provide your comments to the Council regarding the Stopping Up Order, please get in touch with Elliott Della by e-mail to StoppingUp@camden.gov.uk or to Engineering Service, Room 4N/5PS, Town Hall, Judd Street, London WC1H 8EQ by 9th January 2025.

EIA Screening

For your information, we have recently submitted an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Screening Opinion Request to the London Borough of Camden. ‘Screening’ is a procedure used to determine whether a proposed development is likely to have significant effects on the environment and as such would require an EIA to assess these effects. For the extant scheme, it was determined that an EIA was not considered to be required. Instead, potential environmental effects were fully assessed through standalone reports that accompanied the planning application. We consider that the amendments to the scheme do not warrant the need for an EIA and so we are proposing to take the same approach and potential environmental effects will be assessed through updated reports that accompany the Section 73 application.

Listed sculpture temporary relocation

Regal recently submitted three applications to the London Borough of Camden in respect of the previously approved relocation of the Grade II Listed Hampstead Figure Sculpture for a temporary period, which have now been approved by Council Officers.

The purpose of the applications was to secure the continued temporary re-location of the Hampstead Figure Sculpture until 31/12/2028, in order to align with Regal’s expected timescales for the redevelopment of the Site.

These applications serve an administrative purpose and were discussed with the London Borough of Camden prior to submission. Importantly, there is no change to the current approved location, and the intention is for this to continue, to mitigate any potential damage to the Hampstead Figure Sculpture.

For more information, the applications can be found on Camden’s website here and can be found using the following application numbers:

2024/1964/P NMA
2024/1970/P S73
2024/1953/L LBC

On-site activity

There has recently been some activity on-site around the boundary with the park area, which has been re-landscaped. This area was the subject of a license that Essential Living had in place with Camden in relation to the previous construction works.

Regal is currently working up its amended proposals for the redevelopment of the site, which will seek to deliver this long-standing project for the benefit of the community. Given this, construction work is not anticipated to progress until next year. With this in mine, the existing park license has been discontinued and the area temporarily re-landscaped.

Once construction recommences, Regal will seek a new license from Camden, adopting the same approach as the previously approved Construction Management Plan, for all construction access to be from Avenue Road.
