Green light for job dubbed ‘last piece in puzzle’ of regeneration project

Architecture Initiative has won planning for a cinema and community venue at EMI’s former global manufacturing headquarters where records by bands such as Pink Floyd and the Beatles were pressed.

The project, known as The Gramophone, is one of the last elements of U&I’s long-term regeneration project at the rebranded Old Vinyl Factory in Hayes, west London, which was masterplanned by Studio Egret West and will contain more than 750 homes, a school, 550,000sq ft of office space and retail and leisure facilities.
