"Last month, plans were submitted for Whitechapel Healthcare and Research Campus, a £750m development that would provide homes for key workers and supposedly address needs for more green spaces and community facilities. The proposal for the campus comes from investment firm BGO in collaboration with PLP Architecture and Barts Health NHS Trust. It's part of the newly announced Barts Life Science Cluster."
"Well, s panning a whopping 1 million sq. ft, the development would include public sector services as well as flexible workspaces reserved for health-tech, diagnostics, AI and robotics companies. The ground floor of its main building would be publicly accessible with a foyer, a cafe and a 500-capacity event space designed for exhibitions, community use and for demonstrations of MedTech innovation and research."
Whitechapel Healthcare and Research Campus is a £750m, 1 million sq. ft development planned to deliver homes prioritized for NHS key workers alongside public sector services and research spaces. The plan includes flexible workspaces for health‑tech, diagnostics, AI and robotics companies and a publicly accessible ground floor with a foyer, cafe and a 500‑capacity event space for exhibitions and MedTech demonstrations. Proposed amenities include NHS staff spaces and a new Royal London Hospital Museum, while the rooftop would feature a 100m running track, sports pitch and panoramic views. The residential element comprises five new buildings and refurbished terraces, with just over 50% affordable social rent and salary‑capped homes for key workers. Philpot Street would gain a green garden and Walden Street would be reopened and landscaped to provide a pedestrian route through the site.
