The plans for phases one and two include the construction of 14 buildings reaching up to nine storeys in height which will comprise 514 flats. There will also be 3,769 square metres of business space and 1,528 sq m of space for shops and restaurants as well as new open space and landscaping.
Neptune has also submitted outline plans for phases three and four of the scheme. These include the construction of a further seven buildings to comprise between 142 and 293 homes, up to 7,193 sq m of commercial space, business space and a new primary school.
“We committed to Fish Island well ahead of the 2005 Olympic announcement, and we are delighted that after several years of detailed discussions with the various planning agencies we now have a policy platform and agreed framework under which the Neptune Wharf scheme can come forward," said Neptune Group director Patrick Heffron according to reports. “We now expect to see many more privately driven proposals come forward in this exciting Olympic fringe area.”
Neptune said it hopes to receive planning permission for the scheme in 2013.
