Blackhorse Lane is a strategically important Growth Point situated within the Mayor’s Upper Lea Valley Opportunity Area and forms one of the London Borough of Waltham Forest’s key regeneration areas. We Made That were engaged to assist with the final resolution of a Housing Zone Bid to the Greater London Authority that sets out a bold new vision for Blackhorse Lane which envisages an additional 2,500 homes and 1,000 new jobs in the period up until 2026.
Although a number of key sites are currently in development or being developed for housing and mixed uses, there are still substantial development opportunities in the area. Complementary projects such as the mayoral funded works completed by We Made That, and the upcoming Walthamstow Wetlands project are key to unlocking the area’s potential.
