LabTech reveals vision for Hawley Wharf Camden
Camden Markets landlord LabTechhas unveiled its vision for Hawley Wharf Camden, its latest mixed-scheme venture that is scheduled to open by summer 2019. At 580,000 sq ft, the canal-side development is set to be a major attraction in North London, serving Camden’s 30 million visitors a year, equivalent to around 80,000 visitors every day.
Bordered by Chalk Farm Road to the west and Regent’s Canal to the east, with a prime frontage on Camden High Street, Hawley Wharf Camden will revitalise the site’s railway arches, which sit alongside new buildings influenced by the area’s existing historic warehouses. The development will be home to 150 independent and branded stores, over 60 new places to eat, 195 apartments, and 60,000 sq ft of co-working space.
The development will also include the largest farmer’s market in North London, a 12,000-sq ft new fitness concept, unique canal-view rooftop bars and restaurants, and 100 food stalls. A 24,000sq ft triple height basement will become a new entertainment and leisure space.
LabTech commercial director Tomer Bercoviz said: “Hawley Wharf Camden’s canal-side space draws on Camden’s rich heritage as one of London’s most popular tourist destinations, while providing a distinct offer and atmosphere of its own. It is about both shaping the future for Camden Town and respecting its past.”
