Future Olympic Park

In order to create a successful new piece of city in this part of East London over the next 25 years, we are looking to create six new neighborhoods within the Park. These new areas will expand and merge with existing, surrounding neighborhoods and together these neighborhoods will create a thriving new heart for East London.

The new neighbourhoods will be informed by the character of existing local places to ensure that there are no divides between old and new. They will each have a broad mix of housing sizes, ownership and rental options.

The six proposed neighborhoods in the legacy plans are:

(Please note: these are just holding names at the moment and may not be the final place names given to the areas)

  • Stratford Waterfront – a distinctive waterfront location adjacent to Waterworks River and Stratford City

  • Olympic Quarter – a focus for sport, education and housing around the Main Stadium

  • Old Ford – a family housing area focused on the waterways of the Hackney Cut

  • Hackney Wick East – a learning, living and working neighbourhood

  • Stratford Village – a family neighbourhood area to the north of Stratford City

  • Pudding Mill Lane – a mixed employment and housing area in a unique waterfront setting
