Prospect Place South

Battersea Power Station Phase 3C involves constructing two residential buildings and a double basement above an existing Northern Line station box and tunnels, while connecting to a previously completed basement and podium. The heavily constrained site sits within an active retail environment, alongside Electric Boulevard and Prospect Place, key pedestrian routes to Battersea Power Station, while nearby homes and offices remain occupied. With the original design proving prohibitively expensive, the challenge has been to establish a commercially viable scheme while addressing complex structural interfaces and construction constraints.

G&T is providing Cost Management services, having led a collaborative value engineering exercise with the design team to address the scheme’s viability. We helped rationalise both buildings, introducing more uniform and efficient geometry to unlock design efficiencies and greater flexibility when engaging with the main contractor and subcontractor market. G&T subsequently led the procurement process, securing a preferred delivery partner. Our ongoing cost advice continues to support informed decisions and maintain alignment with the client’s budget as the scheme progresses.

The revised scheme will deliver two new residential buildings, a residential podium, community hub and amenity space, supported by a double basement. It will extend the neighbourhood around Battersea Power Station, integrating new accommodation and shared facilities with the existing development. The rationalised design and appointment of a preferred delivery partner have established a viable route forward. G&T’s Cost Management is helping protect the efficiencies achieved and maintain budget control as the project moves towards delivery.
