Lexington Way, Upminster,
Havering
Project: Social Housing | New Build | Brownfield
Client: London Borough of Havering
Consisting of 12 houses and apartments the Lexington Way developed replaced a dilapidated parking court and unused amenity space that suffered anti-social behaviour.
​
A series of new family homes were provided that benefit from a Home Zone style urban realm, this encourages play and social activity while slowing down vehicles.
​
As part of the development an increased number of off street parking spaces were provided to reduce the amount of street parking that was restricting access.
​
On the existing street front a series of wild flower spaces have also been provided.
