Quintain scores at Wembley
Quintain Estates has announced it will be adding around 1million sq ft to its proposals for the Wembley mixed-used redevelopment, following news this week that the government has granted permission to demolish two listed buildings on the site.
The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) has agreed to de-list the Palace of Arts and the Palace of Industries buildings.
The demolition of both buildings will free up an integral and essential part of the developer’s proposed site.
Quintain’s proposals will now cover 58 acres and provide over 6 million sq ft of leisure, retail, office and residential space.
Director of Quintain Estates and Development, Nick Shattock, said: “The decision to de-list this strategically positioned site enables us to move rapidly forward with our plans to deliver an appropriate setting for the National Stadium and the re-launched Wembley Arena.
“This outcome will ensure real momentum for our drive to deliver massively improved local facilities. We will now actively assess plans for this site and undertake more local community consultation before submitting a planning application to Brent council later this summer.” Details: www.quintain-estates.com or www.culture.gov.uk
