Title: 5,000 homes at TVC
Post by Administrator on Sep 30^th, 2015, 10:56am

"From October, home buyers will be able to own a slice of television history when flats at the BBC’s former White City headquarters go on sale. Developers want to create an area to equal nearby Notting Hill and Holland Park — a real challenge in this unrelentingly urban district, with dual carriageways and train tracks that make it a city planner’s nightmare. This uninviting commercial zone could soon be west London’s biggest new district."

More information here.

"With prices starting at £500,000, the launch marks a new era for Television Centre, a bold example of mid-century modern architecture."

There will be 142 'affordable flats' available.
