Scope and content

Initial outline proposals submitted in 1999 and included the redevelopment of Ministry of Defence accommodation on the existing Chelsea Barracks site. The initial brief was to maintain operational efficency and access to married quarters, alongside private residential developments.

Farrells also submitted a later proposal to be lead masterplanner in 2009, where it appears that the Ministry of Defence decommissioned the operational barracks and sold the land after 2006. The stage one submission included engaging with the context of the neighbourhood, completing blocks of residential housing, adding key buildings to corner boundaries, such as hotels and leisure complexes, highlighting formal set pieces, such as the gardens around the Chelsea Bridge road. Material in the archive also has this phase of development as project code: CBB2.
