As part of the Greenford Quay masterplan, Lyon’s Dock represents a significant milestone in our approach to designing for the build-to-rent sector.
The building maximises the potential of a curve in the Grand Union Canal, formerly occupied by the SunBlest bread factory, to create a landmark building which steps up from 7 to 9 storeys maximising views to the water. Mixed use spaces open onto the street animating the waterfront. Lyon’s Dock’s relationship with the neighbouring Lock building creates a gateway to Greenford Quay from Greenford Station through a terraced link. The building gives new use to a brownfield site, referencing an industrial past through its external materials and interior design.
