John Lyall Architects has received planning permission for a new mixed-use scheme in Chatham’s Historic Wharf for a site that will comprise new apartments, a hotel, shops and restaurants.
The site is owned and is being developed by Medway Council, A2 Dominion Housing and the Watts Charity.
It is the first key piece in the Chatham Waterfront “jigsaw” which will provide a street layout which allows residents and visitors to enjoy the open space and views of the river and surrounding hills.
According to the architects, the scheme will provide a strategy for subsequent regeneration, with future phases suggesting the scale of compatible development on the adjacent Staples site, a smaller water pumping station and a refurbishment of the Sun Pier.
