Pilbrow & Partners’ proposals for three residential tower blocks in west London have received the backing of the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation.

The towers, the tallest of which would be 56 storeys, are part of a seven-block mixed-use scheme drawn up for Imperial College London and earmarked for the site of the UK headquarters of electrical retailer Currys.

Imperial College’s proposals would deliver more than 1,300 homes and a further 384 units of student accommodation or co-living space in a 19-storey building.
