Phase one of a council housing development in Barking and Dagenham consisting of 31 dwellings arranged in three terraces
Part of a wider master plan, the redevelopment of the Lintons Estate replaces the once contemporary housing block with 470 high quality tenure homes.
These are divided into terrace houses, mansion blocks, a tower, new public spaces, an enterprise centre and community facilities.
Phase one of the development consists of 31 dwellings: 14 four-bedroom, 15 three-bedroom and 2 two-bedroom houses spread over three terraces configured to enclose a ‘home-zone’ environment.
With individual private gardens and a community enhancing public realm the street incorporates the primary route to the local school retaining a key pedestrian connection.
