Kanda was delighted to see proposals for the redevelopment of the site on the City fringe unanimously approved by Hackney Council in March 2024.

Kanda undertook extensive public consultation on the proposals for the site, carrying out a range of different engagement tools including on the street pop-ups to gather feedback and public consultation events to ensure that the local community were fully informed of the plans.

Following the building’s construction, EDGE Shoreditch will deliver new office space for Hackney, including affordable workspace, alongside new retail opportunities and public realm enhancements, across a building with sustainability at the forefront of its design.
