About the project
The London Borough of Camden is redeveloping the site at 248-250 Camden Road so that it can accommodate homeless families. The redevelopment will provide 39 new temporary homes for families, an external stairwell, rear balconies to all levels; erection of 2 x single storey garden buildings; installation of plant equipment, parking access arrangements, tree and landscaping works. The building will be 4-6 storeys in height, including a basement, and will also provide common areas, staff room and office.
