Planning permission clears the way for Waugh Thistleton’s 15-storey creative hub at Stratford Cross for Lendlease and the eco-focused refurbishment of 123 Golden Lane for Bywater

Waugh Thistleton has received planning consent for two major developments – one in East London and the other in Islington.

S10 at Stratford Cross – a 15-storey commercial building for Lendlease in East London – is designed to serve as a centre for culture and creative workplaces. Positioned within the SHIFT district, the development is part of a post-Olympic regeneration initiative intended to support innovation and growth.

Designed in collaboration with landscape architect LDA, S10’s tripartite structure comprises two primary wings flanking a central core containing essential building systems.

“The recent planning approval for S10 at Stratford Cross is a testament to the power of collaboration between the project’s development partners and marks a significant step forward in creating an emerging creative and cultural workplace destination at the heart of East London,” commented Matthew Steenhoek, Executive Director at Lendlease.
