New London Architecture

Orchard Wharf

Proposed

The safeguarded Orchard Wharf is an innovative and agile design for river borne logistics. It enables e-vessels to deliver cargo from river to land and adds new affordable and student homes.

The safeguarded Orchard Wharf design is future proofed and operationally agile for all river borne logistics for many generations. Both traditional and innovative, it enables river e-vessels to deliver freight cargo to the Wharf for a major reduction in road use, and onto the community via cargo bikes and e-vans. Its inherently sustainable hybrid design blends river use employment with affordable and student homes, and a new public realm.

This project is featured as a project in RePower London: Infrastructure for Growth. The report, exhibition, and accompanying online project directory examine the critical infrastructure needed to support London's growth and resilience. We explore the role of innovation, collaboration, and sustainable design in shaping the city's future, with a focus on ensuring that London remains fit-for-purpose, equitable, and competitive in the long term.
