A new local town centre
At the heart of the development will be a new village centre, with:
Cafes/restaurants along Silbury Boulevard
Space for important social infrastructure, such as a health centre
A convenience store and other shops
Flexible co-working space for small businesses
Day Nursery
Community space for community gatherings
Indoor facilities to support and encourage exercise
Not only will this provide services that new residents need, it will bring people together by creating places to meet and spend time. Signposting from Campbell Park will also help welcome park users into the new community.
A new café will also be located facing onto the canal, as a great place for people to sit out and enjoy the scenery.
Skyline
Milton Keynes might be one of the country’s fastest growing cities – but its heritage lives on. A carefully managed skyline and high standards of architectural excellence give Milton Keynes its distinct personality.
While we will propose some buildings at Campbell Park Northside which offer views across the park, the following principles will define how high we go and where any taller buildings will be located on the site:
Protecting the amenity of neighbours in terms of daylight and sunlight
Protecting the beautiful setting and character of Campbell Park and the canal
Designing buildings that are architecturally excellent, with attractive materials that are suitable for this parkland location
A green community
Green spaces and landscaping will dovetail with the parkland setting, with tree-lined streets leading through the development, and the new homes set in a green, leafy, spacious landscape.
Beautiful buildings
Urban Splash and Glenbrook have a reputation for building exceptional homes with outstanding architecture. Campbell Park North will be no exception, with buildings that suit both the parkland setting and the status of Milton Keynes as a pioneering, iconic city. The outline planning application will include a design code that includes parameters for the new buildings and connections, with the detail coming forward in future phases.
