Study Tour: Ebbsfleet – Alkerden and Castle Hill
Join us on this study tour to Ebbsfleet Garden City to learn about the masterplanning, landscape and architecture of the Castle Hill and Alkerden neighbourhoods. These areas feature hundreds of new homes supported by local centres, a waterfront park and an award-nominated custom build scheme by BPTW. You’ll be guided around the area by members of Ebbsfleet Development Corporation, and the design and developer teams. This will be a great opportunity to learn lessons from Ebbsfleet and network with other built environment practitioners.
This is event 3 of 5 of the Urban Design Course, which you can learn more about here: Course page
