Ballymore has been selected as the joint venture partner for Places for London’s Limmo Peninsula project.

Transport for London’s (TfL) commercial property arm, Places for London, will partner with Ballymore to redevelop five hectares of brownfield land within the Royal Docks and Beckton Riverside Opportunity Area.

The new Limmo Peninsula neighbourhood will provide around 1,400 homes in the London Borough of Newham. 40 per cent will be classed as affordable.

Ben Tate, Head of Property Development at Places for London, said: “We are delighted to have reached this stage in the process for the Limmo Peninsula, bringing us a step closer to bringing this new development in the heart of east London to life. Ballymore shares our dedication to providing great homes for Londoners, helping to ease the housing crisis and build the homes London urgently needs.

“The Limmo Peninsula development will be one of our most ambitious developments to date, showing how we can work with the private sector to benefit from the unique opportunities that our estate provides, and helps, us as part of TfL, to support London’s continued growth. We’re looking forward to creating a thriving and inclusive new residential neighbourhood, that is safe and child friendly, with excellent transport and active travel connections.”

John Mulryan, Group Managing Director at Ballymore, added: "We have deep roots in Newham and are truly delighted to be partnering once again with Places for London. This partnership is in line with our ambition to partner with landowners across London to deliver new neighbourhoods and communities at scale.

“Newham is a fast growing, diverse borough – and it’s hugely important that the vision for this site reflects that character. Limmo Peninsula will be a dynamic neighbourhood – where its community can thrive. We’re looking forward to collaborating closely with local residents and businesses to create opportunity, connections, and a thoughtfully designed, sustainable neighbourhood.”
