Project Area

Where is it?

The Earls Court Project Area is a huge tract of land covering 77 acres (the equivalent of over 120 football pitches) on the western edge of Central London. It spans the boundaries of the boroughs of Hammersmith & Fulham and Kensington & Chelsea and its borders run along Warwick Road to the east, Lillie Road to the south, North End Road to the west and West Cromwell Road (the A4) to the north.

Who owns it?

The land is largely owned by the three potential partners involved in The Earls Court Project – Capital & Counties Properties PLC, the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham and Transport for London. The Earls Court exhibition centre (owned by Capital & Counties) the West Kensington and Gibbs Green housing estates (mostly owned by the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham), and the Lillie Bridge rail depot (owned by Transport for London) are currently included in the development site.

Why here?

Like all major cities, London is constantly evolving and there are many reasons why the Earls Court Project Area offers a rare opportunity to provide housing and jobs for Londoners in the 21st century. This vast plot is perfectly located near to the centre of the city and the A4 motorway to Heathrow Airport, and as you’ll see from the map above it already has excellent transport links with three existing Underground stations and one Overground station plus numerous bus services.

You’ll find more details about the potential benefits of the development and how it forms part of the Mayor’s London Plan in our Why Earls Court section.
