NEW LONDON AWARDS 2022

Shortlisted in the RETAIL AND HOSPITALITY category

Located next to the historic Borough Market, the recently completed Borough Yards development of new retail streets, cultural galleries and commercial office space, is urbane and welcoming. Borough Yards is a place that resonates with the blended work/play lives of modern urbanites.

SPPARC has created an architectural typology which started from the principle that there should be pedestrian lanes within the block linking the river to the historic market, through a series of connecting yard spaces and streets weaved through an impressive Victorian brick arched railway viaduct to optimise the public use and enjoyment.

The project sensitively intertwines the new building additions with the historic architecture of the site, using innovative brickwork to both subtly and boldly connect the old with the new by transforming a series of formerly disused warehouses, arches, and viaducts into highly innovative and attractive cultural, retail, restaurant, and workspace places.

Vote for this project in the ‘People’s Choice Award’. The voting deadline is 1 November 2022.
