The scheme consists of two conjoined towers next to East Croydon station
HTA Design has said the completion of the world’s tallest modular tower in Croydon sets new standards of construction efficiency for high rise housing.
The architect behind the 135m Ten Degrees scheme for developer Greystar said the project went from first concept sketch to handover in just over three years.
Consisting of a pair of 38- and 44-storey conjoined towers located next to East Croydon station which had been vacant for decades, it was assembled using ready-built pods stacked on top of each other like “giant Lego blocks”.
