Powerhouse at Chelsea Waterfront is a historical London power station reimagined as a state-of-the-art, contemporary mixed-use scheme, while honouring the structure’s past
, completes the trio of important pieces of London energy infrastructure and industrial architecture that have now entered a new phase in their life.
Nestled by the water just off the River Thames, this historical coal and later oil-fired and gas-fired power station was originally built in 1905, but has remained disused for decades. Developer CK Asset Holdings Limited took on the site to transform it into a mixed-use scheme, which offers from private to affordable housing, commercial and retail units, and public space, while honouring the structure’s industrial heritage.
Powerhouse will be serviced by amenities that form part of the Chelsea Waterfront wider scheme – including around-the-clock house management, a health and fitness centre, a spa, a fully equipped gym, a 20m swimming pool, and a club lounge for residents. ‘Powerhouse is an iconic London landmark and a cathedral of the industrial age that has been rejuvenated by a world-class team of architects and designers. Taking on a revolutionary new form, Powerhouse will offer a 21st-century living experience like no other in one of London’s most coveted boroughs,’ said Hutchison Property Group’s Dr Edmond Ho. §
