Westfield Stratford City is a £1.8 billion development by the Westfield Group. It is the prestigious gateway to the London 2012 Olympic Park and a key component of the regeneration of this significant area in East London. The project received the British Council of Shopping Centres’ 2011 Gold Award for an
In-Town Retail Scheme Over 300 000 ft².
Westfield Stratford City is the largest urban shopping centre in UK, with a combination of indoor and outdoor retail and leisure environments that link the Olympic Park, the existing Stratford Town Centre and major transport interchanges. A curving glazed roof sits above a 3-level retail mall that complements an outdoor boulevard that operates 24 hours a day with a vibrant mix of shopping and dining opportunities.
The 1.9m sq ft of retail comprises two major department stores, over 300 individual retail units, restaurants and cafes, cinemas and leisure outlets, supplemented by 5000 car parking spaces and approximately 1.1m sq ft of office space.
Westfield appointed The Buchan Group in 2006 to provide Executive Architectural Services for Westfield Stratford City. The Buchan Group is supporting Westfield's Design Team, acting as lead design consultant for the Westfield Stratford City project and delivering its scope of services from development of the Scheme Design, (RIBA Stage D), through to Construction Support services and final contract completion.
Westfield Stratford City opened in September 2011.
