CMA Planning were pleased to have secured approval at the London Borough of Waltham Forest’s Planning Committee for the redevelopment of the St James Health Centre site in Walthamstow. This scheme, for Your Tribe and designed by CJCT / Studio Bosk, will deliver a PBSA led mixed-use scheme with 224 student bedspaces and 628 sqm of new class E commercial space.
The development is set out across two blocks, one arranged in a horseshoe to form a high quality external courtyard space for the students, with the second infilling an existing gap in the St James Street frontage. The proposals will help the continued regeneration of the St James Quarter, following on from a range of other schemes, including the recently completed Jazz Yard, which CMA secured permission for in 2020.
