The Greenwich Waterfront Masterplan project reimagines the river frontage between Deptford Creek and North Greenwich Thames Clipper Jetty, aiming to enhance, promote, and protect this historically and ecologically significant area.
In Term 1, the focus was on analysing the site to enhance connectivity, revitalize underused spaces, and reconnect the river with surrounding neighbourhoods. Students used tools like LiDAR scanning, 3D mapping, and desktop research to inform innovative landscape interventions. Designs explored the integration of Greenwich’s maritime heritage, ecological value, and urban development.
In Term 2, the project moved into detailed, site-specific design. Students refined key areas of the waterfront, translating the masterplan into tangible proposals. This phase emphasized improving land-water connections, celebrating the Thames’ cultural and ecological identity, and creating accessible, engaging public spaces. The goal was to deliver cohesive interventions that support the broader vision while responding to the unique character and challenges of each site. Through this work, students contribute to a regenerated, sustainable waterfront that fosters stronger ties between Greenwich’s communities and the River Thames.
