McAleer & Rushe has been appointed by property developer Knight Dragon to deliver 300 new homes in London’s Greenwich Peninsula.
As main contractor for the M0121 project, McAleer & Rushe will deliver two residential buildings, ranging in height from seven to 30 storeys.
Construction has officially started on site following a groundbreaking ceremony earlier this month.
The housing project will be developed as part of Knight Dragon’s wider regeneration scheme to create nearly 17,500 new homes in the area, as well as cultural spaces and community facilities.
