Phase Three, a key part of the regeneration of the Battersea site, has been designed by Gehry Partners and
Foster + Partners and includes new homes and a new high street, known as The Electric Boulevard, in an area to
the south of the landmark Battersea Power Station.

The Electric Boulevard will be the main gateway to the 42-acre development, connecting the Northern Line
Extension station with the Power Station. The phase includes more than 1,300 homes in a range of sizes and
styles in two zones on either side of the boulevard, as well as a 160-room hotel, retail spaces, restaurants and
leisure facilities.

Gehry Partners has designed the five buildings to the east of The Electric Boulevard known as “Prospect Place”,
which comprises around half of the planned residential units, double-height retail spaces at street level, a
community park and multi-use community hub, and the distinctive “Flower” building.

Foster + Partners has designed the undulating building to the west of The Electric Boulevard called “The Skyline”,
which brings together the other half of the planned homes, including 103 units of affordable housing, in addition to
a medical centre and 160-room hotel. Two floors of retail front on to the western side of the street, while generous
breaks in the façade allow daylight to reach the public spaces below. The entire top of the building is laid out as
one of London’s largest roof gardens – over a quarter of a kilometre long, the garden will have views of the Power
Station, river and city beyond.
