Bollo Lane

Five new residential buildings take their place on a plinth of brick arches following the gentle curve of Bollo Lane in Acton. Three characterful mansion blocks and two towers bookend the development while workspaces and commercial premises occupy the arched colonnade below.

A series of landscaped spaces for residents are elevated to first floor. They provide public footways, community gardens and green routes, as well as alternative access to the housing blocks, achieving an impressive Urban Greening Factor of 0.47. This is phase 3 of a larger development that extends for 750m along a narrow site between Bollo Lane and the railway behind and provides 50% affordable housing.
