NEW DEVELOPMENTS; BUILDING FABRIC 19
World’s tallest modular towers set for Croydon
W
hat are thought to be the world’s tallest modular residential towers are planned for a new build to rent project in Croydon, south London.
The development at 101 George Street, Croydon, is funded by Greystar
and will be built by Tide Construction. It will comprise two towers of 37 and 44 stories (115 metres and 134 metres respectively), housing 546 apartments in total. Tide Construction together with their associate company, Vision Modular
Systems, will construct the modules for the buildings in a controlled factory environment in Bedford to ensure a higher quality finish. This method will, it is claimed, produce 80 per cent less waste, as well as providing greater certainty on costs and time, and mean fewer workers are needed on-site. Consultant Mccains have also been appointed on to the development. Situated directly opposite East Croydon train station, the towers are
intended to provide a “strong base for residents.” The busy station averages 600 London-bound trains on a typical weekday – with the fastest taking just 16 minutes. Croydon, with large shopping district and thriving leisure economy, has
become one of the largest commercial enclaves outside central London. It has also been dubbed the “Silicon Valley of south London,” due to its growing tech and start-up scenes, and is fast-becoming an attractive area for
young professionals and families. Work on the new development is due to be completed
over a 24-month period – with residents moving into the towers in the early part of 2020.

Retractable up & over doors easy to automate
Delivering safety, security and years of trouble free service, Garador’s steel Up & Over garage doors have long been a top favourite across the UK. Unlike canopy Up & Over garage doors, retractable doors are designed in such a way that they are really easy to automate with an electric operator. Retractable gearing means the door panel opens on horizontal tracks running back into the garage. They can be easily automated with a GaraMatic electric operator so the homeowner can open their garage door by pressing a button on a hand transmitter. GaraMatic operators are expertly engineered to ensure fast and smooth opening and the hand transmitters incorporate bi-directional radio signals which are heavily encrypted for high security. Garador’s retractable Up & Over doors also come with a unique parking position and multiple spring cassette, to ensure that the door is always safe to use. They come in a wide choice, of designs, colours and finishes.
