Ingredients for Success - Hounslow

We’re at Lampton Parkside, where Notting Hill Genesis is building 940 homes on Hounslow Council’s former civic centre site, with 40% affordable and 75 bought by the Council.

Director of Growth and Regeneration Peter O’Brien praises his predecessors and for their foresight in "making the best use of the site for maximum public gain”.
