Cranes in place as towers set to rise on the Alperton Bus garage site

The Carey/Telford Homes buiding ste at the junction of Ealing Road and Bridgewater Road


The eventual height of the three towers to be built on the former Alperton bus garage site is evident from the height of the cranes as seen today.

The towers are 28, 25 and 21 storeys high and will dwarf Alperton Station and Alperton High School and will throw considerable shade.  The station and school can just be seen in the bottom right corner of this image, The blue outlines show the original height proposal that was reduced. Often developers take the likely demand for reduction from residents into account when they make their original proposal so it appears that they are taking note of residents views when they knock a couple of storeys off.

 


Ealing Road from the station to Bridgewater Road will be a canyon with high rise on either side and more high rises are planned for further up Bridgewater Road, The former 'Pleasure Boat' pub opposite is currently boarded  up awaiting redevelopment.

 


Brent Council  has agreed to spend around £48m of borrowed money to buy 155 leasehold flats in block 'C' from an unidentified “Asset Special Purpose Vehicle”. See Philip Grant's article HERE .
