The last undeveloped plot in the White City Campus
Imperial College London is inviting the Shepherd’s Bush community to visit a drop-in event tomorrow, Tuesday, 19 July to see draft plans for Plot A, the last remaining space on the north site of its White City Campus.
Imperial College says it is proposing to create a new student accommodation building on the plot, which will also include commercial / business space at the lower floors. Plot A is located at the corner of Wood Lane and Shinfield Street and is the last building in the part of the White City Campus north of the Westway.
Most of the buildings are now complete and in use, with the exception of the School of Public Health, which is currently under construction next to Plot A on Wood Lane.
The White City Campus includes the Translation and Innovation Hub ‘I-HUB’, the Molecular Sciences Research Hub and the Sir Michael Uren Hub, as well as homes including student accommodation at GradPad and affordable homes for Imperial key workers at the 34 storey high tower, Eighty Eight Wood Lane.
South of the Westway is the College’s dedicated community space, The Invention Rooms, where the community engagement team run education, skills and employment-based initiatives for local residents .The south site also includes a new innovation space for scale-up businesses, Scale Space.
The drop-in event, which will be part of a larger consultation, will offer visitors the chance to see the draft plans, ask questions and provide feedback. It will take place tomorrow,Tuesday 19 July July between 3.30pm and 8pm at Brickfields Hall, Shinfield Street, W12.
