The £52.8m contract includes the construction of 75 homes for private sale, 66 homes for affordable rent, ten wheelchair adapted units, and additional retail and commercial spaces. There will also be a 52-space underground car park.

The tower block will be at Abbey Road and Belsize Road in Kilburn and forms part of the council’s 15-year housing plan.

Wates recently completed £4m of enabling works on the site and has now started the main work on site. The project is being delivered over a 98-week build programme.

Overseeing the project for Wates is Glen Roberts, who recently joined from Mulalley as project director.
