Arada London has submitted plans for 101 Newington Causeway in Elephant & Castle, a new mixed-use development bringing together co-living, hospitality, workspace and public realm.

The proposals will deliver 720 new co-living homes and a 404-bed hotel, alongside more than 9,000 sq ft of co-working space, cafés, shared dining, social and wellbeing spaces.

Designed by PLP Architecture, the two buildings are conceived as a vertical village, with shared amenities and landscaped spaces connecting the development and creating new pedestrian routes towards Elephant & Castle station and the town centre. Their stepped concrete façades respond to the industrial character of the area and its evolving skyline.

The scheme is Arada’s first co-living development globally, and an opportunity to explore a different model of urban living, bringing together homes, hospitality, workspaces and places to meet in a way that reflects how people live and work in London today.

Arada has submitted a series of planning applications to the London Borough of Newham to advance the delivery of Thameside West, a £2.5 billion GDV site with the potential to deliver at least 5,000 homes. At over 47 acres, this is one of London’s largest and most ambitious regeneration projects, with proposals that would unlock the delivery of affordable housing and connect the area between the Thames and Royal Docks for the first time.

Building on the existing hybrid planning permission, the plans set out a landscape-led approach to the first stage of the project. The buildings will be organised around a network of streets, gardens, parks and shared spaces, with cafes and restaurants on the ground floor. This stage comprises nearly 1,500 new homes across six buildings, the first two of which will now be 100% social rent and will include three and four bedroom family homes.

At the heart of the proposals will be a new seven-acre park, alongside around 1,000 new trees, creating a greener, more biodiverse environment for residents and the wider community. The park will include dedicated play spaces including adventure-filled woodland areas, play trails and play-on-the-way spaces. This is further complemented by a kilometre of active waterfront and a riverside walk along Bell Lane, which marks the south-east border of the site.

A community design group of 20 local residents is working with Arada London to help shape a section of park around local needs. A series of workshops is now underway, giving residents the opportunity to share local knowledge, explore ideas and inform the design of a welcoming and inclusive public space.

Thameside West is being brought forward in partnership with the Greater London Authority The Royal Docks Team, reflecting a shared commitment to unlocking and delivering high quality, genuinely affordable new homes that meet local need with a focus on nature and wellbeing.

As we look back on a monumental year for Arada London, these are just a few of the highlights.

1. In November, the landmark 80 percent acquisition of Thameside West followed, a £2.5 billion waterfront development in the Royal Docks and the largest property deal of the decade.
2. In September, Arada acquired 75 percent of Regal, committing £500 million to expand London’s residential pipeline to 30,000 homes and marking the launch of Arada London.
3. Over the summer, our flagship development Fulton & Fifth welcomed its first residents.
4. This year, The Clarendon Works secured its eighth award for excellence, with recognition as Best Commercial Workplace at the 2025 BCO Awards for the Midlands and Central England.

A year defined by growth, delivery and recognition.
