Project Brief – The Millennium Mills Redevelopment
Cities across the world are already feeling the effects of the climate crisis and need to
ensure that they are resilient to a future which could result in a variety of changeable
weather, such as more powerful rainfall events, higher temperatures and sea level rise.
This means that all new developments need to be designed to be resilient in an uncertain
world in 2050 to ensure that the people living, working and visiting there are safe, healthy,
comfortable and productive. Silvertown Quays in London’s Royal Docks is a waterside site
which will be developed over the next 10-15 years and needs to be designed to be 2050-
ready.
The client has already received several proposals regarding the refurbishment of the Mills
but remains unsatisfied with these proposals. Details of the context and background to the
Millennium Mills can be found in Appendix A.
Your team is an engineering consultancy company and has been commissioned by the
lead developer Lendlease to carry out a feasibility study and outline design for the
redevelopment of the Millennium Mills located on the southern side of the Royal Victoria
Dock and associated infrastructure. You will be considering plot 4 for the construction of a
new building to facilitate the client’s requirements below. Basic details, and site plans are
provided on the Moodle site for EG7034 – with further documentary details and materials
accessed online from the Newham London Borough Planning Portal.
Access details of which are in Appendix B.
Project requirements
Lendlease is looking to you for answers as to how to achieve from the project the most
appropriate:
• Sustainable approach to design that will provide long term benefit to the local and
wider area of East London.
• An integrated infrastructure strategy and improved access and transport links for
the local people and businesses.
• A strong commercial strategy & evidence that the development with be financially
viable and meet its legal requirements.
• Demonstrate that they meet the needs of local and regional stakeholders and
environmental planning obligations
• A clear procurement strategy and safe construction programme
5
• A high-quality development that showcases innovation and also provides value for
money for the client and stakeholders alike.
This is broken down in more detail into five (I – V) sections in Part B of this assignment.
