Hallsville Quarter

London

Hallsville Quarter is a landmark mixed-use development in London, delivering a £600 million town centre transformation in Canning Town, East London.
Working as both developer and contractor alongside the London Borough of Newham, Bouygues UK is creating over 1,100 new homes, 30,000m² of retail and leisure space, and a new community hub across five phases.

Forming part of the £3.7 billion Canning Town and Custom House Regeneration Programme, Hallsville Quarter is the new £600 million town centre that is being created to establish a lasting legacy for Canning Town. It will act as the catalyst for the transformation of the wider area, helping to form a new, thriving and prosperous district centre for this emerging area of east London.

This transformational scheme is being delivered over five phases and it will provide approximately 1,100 homes with a variety of tenures, over 30,000m² of leisure and retail space, and community facilities. New pedestrian links and cyclist provision are also included, as well as 1,100 secure parking spaces.

Phase 1

Phase 1 provides a 7,500m² foodstore at ground level above a basement car park, with 179 new homes located above and created around a shared landscaped garden. The energy centre provides heating and hot water for the whole masterplan area.

Working closely with the London Borough of Newham and private investors Mountain Capital and One Housing Group, Bouygues UK unlocked the development potential of the site during the unfavourable economic circumstances of 2011/2012, when numerous mixed-use development London schemes had stalled due to a lack of available funding.

Phase 2

Phase 2 delivers a diverse range of residential tenures as part of this mixed-use development in London, with 160 private for sale homes, 134 PRS homes, and 55 affordable homes. The phase also provides a 196-bed hotel, retail and restaurant units, a gym and medical centre, parking for approximately 300 cars, bicycle storage facilities, and additional public spaces. This phase also links the scheme directly to the underground station.

At the heart of the Phase 1 and 2 podium sits just over 3,000m² of shared amenity space, providing lawns, play areas, barbeque areas, cycle storage, and landscaped areas accessible to all residents across both phases.

Phase 3

This phase completes the main public pedestrian spaces, with a new civic square and a new park for the area, all surrounded by high street retail, cafes and restaurants with outdoor dining.

Phase 3 provides 620 new homes across eight buildings arranged around shared podium garden courtyards above street level. A new health centre is to be built and there will be over 8,500m² of commercial space which includes retail and leisure units.

Phase 4

Hallsville Quarter Phase 4 is a new purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) development in Canning Town, East London, delivering 375 student rooms for the 2026/2027 academic year. The scheme is a joint venture between Crosstree Real Estate Partners and Bouygues UK, designed by PRP Architects with interiors by Holloway Li.

What is Hallsville Quarter Phase 4?

Phase 4 is the penultimate stage of the £600 million Hallsville Quarter Masterplan. This is a long-term regeneration scheme transforming Canning Town in the London Borough of Newham. This phase introduces 375 purpose-built student rooms to the development, alongside state-of-the-art communal amenities, roof terraces, and a landscaped public realm designed to integrate with the surrounding neighbourhood.

Who is developing Hallsville Quarter Phase 4?

The scheme is being delivered as a joint venture between Crosstree Real Estate Partners and Bouygues UK’s development arm. Bouygues UK is also acting as main contractor, self-delivering the concrete frame and selected internal finishing works to maximise programme efficiency and quality control.

How sustainable is the Hallsville Quarter Phase 4 development?

Sustainability is central to the delivery of Phase 4. Bouygues UK is targeting BREEAM Excellent certification, with a low-carbon construction methodology throughout. The use of fully pre-fabricated bathrooms reduces waste and improves on-site efficiency, while self-delivery of key construction elements helps minimise the scheme’s overall carbon footprint.

When will Hallsville Quarter Phase 4 be completed?

The development is on track for completion in summer 2026, in time to welcome students for the 2026/2027 academic year.

Hallsville Quarter will be a thriving town centre that reflects our aspirations for the borough and our residents. It will also establish a brand new commercial and residential hub for the whole of East London
