We’re investing in Teviot’s future, creating a vibrant neighbourhood where the community can thrive. In partnership with award-winning developers The Hill Group, this major regeneration will deliver modern homes, green spaces and welcoming community facilities at the heart of Poplar.
The £800 million project will happen in four phases, starting with Phase One, which already has detailed planning consent. Phases Two to Four have outline approval from Tower Hamlets Council.
Here’s what’s coming:
- Homes for everyone: 1,928 new homes, including 508 affordable- an increase of 65%*
- Green spaces to enjoy: five new public squares and a fully re-landscaped Langdon Park, co-designed with residents.
- Community at the heart: new facilities and an improved mosque, created with local community and faith groups.
- Space for creativity: workspaces for makers and start-ups, building on Poplar’s creative heritage.
- Places to meet: shops and cafés that bring people together.
We’re backing this with £240 million in social value, which is supporting jobs, training and local businesses.
Community Led
Teviot residents have been at the heart of shaping the design and vision of the masterplan at every stage.
An independent ballot of 617 eligible Teviot residents was conducted by Electoral Reform Services where 86% of residents backed proposals for regenerating the estate on an 81% turnout,
Since the ballot, consultation with the Residents’ Steering Group (RSG) and the local community has been ongoing, with residents contributing to the scheme’s procurement and designs.
Our partners
Teviot residents worked with us to appoint Housebuilder of the Year, Hill as joint venture partner to deliver the Teviot regeneration.
BPTW are the scheme architects, Lichfield are the partnership’s planning consultants.
Resident drop ins
Residents can find out about upcoming events or drop in for a chat with our Resident Empowerment team at the Teviot container on St Leonards Road, every Wednesday, from 2-4pm.
Our promise to existing residents
If you’re a Poplar HARCA resident living in the regeneration area, we want to reassure you that if you’re currently paying social rent, that won’t change – it’ll stay the same. The commitments made in the Landlord Offer on rent remain unchanged, and we are committed to delivering them.
