City Park West is an impressively ambitious redevelopment of a city centre brownfield site for a social housing client, Notting Hill Genesis. The brief was to provide a range of housing aimed at a broad mix of Chelmsford鈥檚 population, alongside some commercial retail and leisure space. The client chose to retain ownership of the whole development, renting out the housing at both affordable and market rates. To this, the architects added their own aspirations: to use the development as an opportunity to restitch this large, previously abandoned site back into the fabric of the city centre.听 听
