Shortlisted Architects for Stockwell Street Redevelopment Announced
July 2, 2009 by Rob Powell
Architects’ Journal has reported that the short list of architects for the proposed redevelopment in Stockwell Street by the University of Greenwich has been announced.
80 applications were received through the European Union’s tendering process, and they have been whittled down to the following seven architects:
- David Chipperfield
- Rafael Viñoly
- Allies and Morrison
- Bennetts Associates
- Wilkinson Eyre
- Schmidt Hammer Lassen
- Heneghan Peng Architects
The prize at stake is the £60 million new school of architecture for the University of Greenwich at the site that was, until very recently, home to the much loved Greenwich Village Market and some office buildings. Previous plans for a mixed use development on the site were approved by the Council but the owners sold the site to the University of Greenwich rather than proceed with the redevelopment.
It’s worth visiting the article at the Architects’ Journal to see some interesting pictures of the current site that have been taken from the roofs of the existing buildings.
