London is full of regeneration projects but this is set to be the grandest one yet as developers are planning on transforming Barking’s Riverside to our very own slice of Barcelona.
We know, it sounds barking mad but Barking is set to be pumped full of money, houses and a swanky new Riverside scheme to get it looking like something out of a Spanish holiday brochure.
This so-called ‘Barcelona on the Thames’ will see 10,800 new homes being built as well as commercial spaces, restaurants, bars and cafés. It is set to be one of Europe’s biggest brownfield regeneration sites and has an impressive mile and a quarter of pure south-facing Thames bliss.
