en.Wedoany.com Reported - Vistry has topped out the Patchworks development in Walthamstow, a construction project that will deliver 583 mixed-tenure homes. This milestone was marked by the topping out of the 18-storey Building F. The project is located on the former site of the Homebase store on Forest Road, with the total floor area meeting the planning target.

Vistry was joined by Newlon Housing Trust, Sigma Capital Group, and the London Borough of Waltham Forest at the topping-out ceremony. Vistry is the lead developer for the construction project. Newlon will manage 228 affordable homes, while Sigma will operate the remaining 355 rental homes through its Simple Life London brand. The affordable housing includes both London Affordable Rent and Shared Ownership tenures, and the rental portion will be professionally managed.

The project commenced construction on the former Homebase site and is planned to include commercial space, co-working areas, landscaped greenery, and children's play facilities. Supporting works will involve environmental improvements to Forest Road, including the addition of 80 street trees and the optimization of pedestrian routes to enhance area connectivity. The overall construction schedule aligns with the previously disclosed timeline.

Kevin Delve, Managing Director of Vistry East London, said: "This is a significant milestone in delivering an excellent new scheme for Walthamstow, helping to meet the ongoing need for high-quality new homes across a mix of tenures for local people." Upon completion, the 228 affordable homes managed by Newlon will be integrated into the London Borough of Waltham Forest's housing supply. The 355 rental homes operated by Sigma will provide mid-to-long-term housing options on the open market. Once the construction project is finished, the former commercial site will be transformed into a mixed-use community comprising residential, commercial, and public spaces.
