S3: Ep 7 - The Making of Silvertown

October 16, 2024 • John Sisk & Son

Silvertown is a very large, former industrial area on the Royal Docks in East London. It has a rich history but the 50 acre site has lain derelict for decades. Today, it is being regenerated to house a new generation of London residents and Sisk has been awarded the contract to build the very first plot here.

This is a particularly unique project, not only due to the challenging nature of the site, but also because of the modern methods of construction being used for the first time and some of the very specialised carbon-reduction systems in place.

In this episode of Inside Sisk, we meet members of the onsite team and learn about this innovation in practice, the importance of strong working relationships, and the positive impact that the Silvertown project is having on the local community
