Wapping Wharf
The total masterplan for the 4 hectare brownfield site comprises over 600 apartments, offices, hotel & retail space. Wapping Wharf phase one masterplan creates 194 apartments along a new street connecting Cumberland Road to Museum Street.
The north & south facing apartments take advantage of spectacular views to the New Cut & Floating Harbour, all having balconies or terraces.
For the commercial element, the developer focused on local traders not chains, & selected them to be complementary. Ten commercial units are provided in Phase 1 with an unusually large maximised frontage for each unit.
