Greenwich Millennium Village provides a sustainable urban quarter of approximately 3000 mixed tenure homes on the Greenwich peninsula in south-east London. Phase 2 provides 372 of these innovative new homes built on the principle of the traditional London square, creating streets and public spaces scaled to provide a lively, intimate and secure environment.

The project was required to meet stringent environmental targets, including reductions in both primary and embodied energy of 30% and 50% respectively, and construction waste by up to 50%. Water consumption, construction costs and project duration were similarly targeted for reductions of up to 30%. Phase 2 exceeded these targeted expectations.
