Mile End Scape East

A refurbishment of the former Network Rail Arches, this remarkable student housing venture for the well-established client SCAPE established 412 studio rooms and cluster flats. The project consisted of four towers situated in two primary blocks, East and West, linked by a four-story connecting building. The project also encompassed a single-story bicycle storage space, communal areas, study areas, and a gym.

Nick Campfield, Project Director at HG Construction said: "A timber product was in the planning requirements, but we had no doubt about whose product we wanted for this development as soon as we saw the sample product from NorDan. The simple uncomplicated design, the easy to operate mechanism, from a tried and trusted manufacturer, left us in no doubt. We’ve been really, really happy with the NorDan product with no faults at all reported.”
