Tide Construction has received final approval to build the UK’s tallest modular tower in Canary Wharf, London.
Tide will be the developer and contractor of the 48-storey 159m high tower at 30 Marsh Wall, which will include more than 1,000 student beds and a roof garden, with its sister company Vision Modular Systems providing the modules to construct the tower.
John Fleming, chair at Tide, said: “This scheme will further demonstrate the power of modular to deliver buildings of the highest architectural quality with world-leading engineering.
“Thanks to sustained year-on-year growth in delivery and pipeline, Tide and Vision Modular will continue to develop and build institutional-grade buildings that confirm volumetric modular as a mainstream method of construction.”
