Vengrove Partners with Charity Ark on Mixed-Use Redevelopment in Shepherd’s Bush

Vengrove has partnered with Ark and Hammersmith & Fulham Council on EdCity, the redevelopment of Ark Swift Primary Academy and Harmony Neighbourhood Nursery to create an ambitious new mixed-use development with a focus on education.

EdCity will consist of a redeveloped two-form entry Ark Swift Primary Academy, a 75-place nursery for Harmony Neighbourhood Nursery, a Youth Zone centre and an expanded Adult Education and Community Learning Centre. Additionally, 97,000 sq ft of affordable office accommodation will be created, to be set aside for education and social innovation charities. The goal is to create an education hub in West London, where like-minded and mission-aligned organisations can collaborate to enact positive change. The hub will also include 132 residential units, of which 50% will be affordable housing.
