Site assembly, Canning Town
Completed
The site of a London recycling business was held three ways: part freehold, part long leasehold from Newham Council, and a strip occupied without a lease and registered as highway land. We had the highway status removed, through consultation and the courts, then negotiated the purchase of the council's interests, bringing the whole site into the client's ownership.

Planning amendment, 137 homes
Ongoing
A permitted development scheme of 137 homes, with a car park tied to it by the planning consent. We are amending the consent to reduce the parking, which is the first step in bringing forward a further scheme on the site.
The homes, the parking the consent ties to them, and the land that reducing it frees. Cladding remediation
Ongoing
The same building has cladding that needs remediating. We made the application to the government fund and put the team in place, and we are making sure the work is done promptly for the freeholder and in the interests of the leaseholders.
