Earls Court Development
The Earls Court Development is one of London's most significant urban regeneration schemes — a multi-billion-pound transformation of the 40-acre former Earls Court exhibition centre site straddling Kensington and Chelsea and Hammersmith and Fulham, a 42-story tower with 4000 residences at Warwick Road targeting 2030.
Led by the Earls Court Development Company with a masterplan team including Hawkins\Brown and Studio Egret West, the project reknits a long-dormant railway-severed site back into the city, organized around a generous new central park and a network of public squares, streets and east-west connections. The plans bring roughly 4,000 new homes, around 230,000 square metres of workspace, and three new cultural venues, alongside shops, restaurants and community space, with sustainability and biodiversity woven through the green spine at its heart. Conceived as a series of distinct character areas rather than a single megastructure, the development aims to create a vibrant, mixed-use west London district that reanimates the legacy of the storied Earls Court name.
Hammersmith and Fulham approved unanimously on 26 November 2025 and Kensington and Chelsea followed on 16 December, clearing the £10bn, 4,000-home masterplan for a 2026 mobilisation.
earlscourt.comThe Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea resolved to grant permission on 16 December 2025, after the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham approved unanimously on 26 November 2025, clearing the 7.5 million sq ft masterplan led by the Earls Court Development Company for Delancey, APG and Places for London. Phase one covers roughly 1,500 homes, the first cultural and commercial buildings, the park and the east-west connections, with enabling works from 2026, first residents in 2030 and full build-out running to 2041.
