Earlier this week Westminster planners voted to grant planning consent to the revised proposals for the canal side site in Paddington.
Outline permission was initially granted several years ago for a 42-storey tower by Robin Partington & Partners (now Apt), then nicknamed “the Cucumber”, along with three other blocks.
The main tower will now be joined by another smaller tower of 21 storeys, delivering a combined total of 426 units, with the latter housing 67 affordable units. There will also be some retail and leisure floorspace, and the main block will have a two-storey “sky bar” on the top two floors.
