Euston Station HS2Maximising the Opportunity
Euston Station HS2
Foreword The Euston EstateIn 2008, in conjunction with Atkins, we published our Vision Masterplan for the redevelopment of Euston Station and the surrounding area. Commissioned by the owners of The Euston Estate, the project helped us to understand the potential for a comprehensive, mixed use, over-station development scheme at Euston that reflected the aspirations of the various stakeholders as well as the constraints associated with delivering a project of that scale. However, the announcement in 2010 that Euston had been selected as the London terminus for the HS2 rail project meant that the scheme proposed in our Vision Masterplan was no longer deliverable.
We have therefore revisited the original scheme and, working again with Atkins and our new development partner, Related Corporation – the American developers behind the Hudson Rail Yards scheme in New York – have produced an updated document that sets out the principles behind a revised masterplan. This scheme is compatible with the current HS2 proposals for Euston (“Option 8”) but will also maximise the value from the site, helping to fund the station modernisation and deliver the community benefits that could otherwise be missed by adopting a less holistic approach.
I hope that the readers of this document find it helpful and of interest, and that it will promote an active discussion about the future of Euston in this once-in-a-century development opportunity. We look forward to working with our new development partner, Related Corporation, and all of the local stakeholders and interest groups, to evolve the masterplan into a proposal for Euston that is not only fitting for the gateway station to a 21st Century transport network, but creates a piece of city in its own right.

5 OUR PROPOSAL
Euston Station HS2
Network Rail
The challenge of modernising Euston station presents a real opportunity to create new jobs, investment and growth.
To achieve this, we need to create a station that transcends its basic transport functions and emerges as a destination in its own right capable of reinforcing and supporting the surrounding community.
6 OUR PROPOSAL - MAXIMISING THE OPPORTUNITY
HS2 Option 8
Our Master Plan BoundaryThe maximised opportunity
Euston Station HS2
Proposed
We have addressed the challenges of boundaries and permeability by having clear zones for public and private access and maximising the routes through the building.
Existing
The station is a physical barrier in the Camden townscape. It is a socially excluding site characterised by restricted permeability and deteriorating public spaces.
