Each floor will feature a wraparound balcony with views of the nearby marina.<\/p>\n<p>Plans also call for a wide range of on-site amenities, including rooftop communal terraces, a fitness center, resident\u2019s bike storage, restaurant facilities and a children\u2019s play area.<\/p>\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldconstructionnetwork.com\/news\/brookfield-multiplex-to-build-essential-livings-helix-twin-tower-building-in-london-280714-4328234\/\" rel=\"nofollow\"><i>World Construction Network<\/i><\/a>, Brookfield Multiplex has secured a nearly $152 million (\u00a390 million) contract for the construction.<\/p>\n<p>The project has been designed according to the Code for Sustainable Homes Level 4, an environmental assessment method that aims to encourage continuous improvement in sustainable homebuilding across the U.K. The development will also comply with the standards of Lifetime Homes, a series of 16 design criteria intended to make homes more easily adaptable for lifetime use at minimal cost.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ensuring quality throughout the development process has been our top priority\u2014we&#8217;re building and managing homes for long-term rent, and that means they have to still look and function perfectly 10 years down the line.
