The legacy owners of the private rental homes at East Village, Get Living London, also picked up an award for 바카라 사이트榥ewcomer of the year바카라 사이트�. The successes recognise the innovative and sustainable design of East Village, and the excellence achieved in the quality of the 2,818 new homes, 25 acres of parklands and open spaces, a state-of-the-art education campus, health centre and community facilities.

The scale and complexity of East Village is unique, and the planners and contractors had to rise to the challenge of accommodating 23,000 athletes and officials during the Games, to converting more than 2,800 homes 바카라 사이트� far more than any traditional residential project would produce at one time. All homes have achieved Level 4 of the Code for Sustainable Homes, the largest project to so far reach this standard.
East Village also has a brand new Academy that opened last September, and a state-of-the-art Health and Wellbeing Centre with 800 Village residents and local people from the Newham area now on its books.
