Option 1: Plan view Option 2: Plan view The ‘Car Park’ Options, following initial GLA feedback

Linear figures pushed too far into the landscape although massing minimised given length of buildings. Articulated fingers separated Leisure centre and residential but created confusion over access and entry with no single entry. Compressed linear buildings creates a series of courtyards and openness and accessibility but pushes beyond the PDL Podium courtyard realigns the massing onto the PDL whilst creating a main access area and a degree of openness between the residential buildings Option 1: Massing Option 2: Massing

22 November 2017 23 GLA PARAMETERS

The Leisure Centre is re-orientated to the Ruislip Road and the upper levels of residential development moved back to the east and west sides of the building. The Podium/Courtyard building simplified with the car park moved to a single basement and two ‘L’ shaped wings utilised to frame the main entry to the park as well ass provide access through the courtyard space. The Leisure centre is set out using the urban edge of Peal Gardens and the Residential set out to the northern limit of the PDL (existing carp-ark). The upper Western edge of this being the subject of a PDL swap returning the triangle of PDL back to MOL on the Southwest of the carp-ark.

Parameters Scheme agreed in principle with the GLA in April 2018 PLAN EVOLUTION

The houses along the south-side of Ruislip Road East suffer some loss in terms of sunlight and more importantly, daylight, as a result of the proposed scheme massing.

Two of the properties within Peal Gardens are also impacted.

Options were reviewed to understand how the massing can be re-imagined to improve the daylighting conditions within
