Building a city for all of us
We already provide space for hundreds of incredible businesses, now we’re going further to create even more of the spaces that all kinds of businesses need to thrive.
We’re building more than 20,000 new homes in the next ten years. And by homes we mean sustainable, desirable, beautiful homes, many of them affordable – where Londoners can grow their roots.
Whilst upgrading existing workspaces, we’ll be delivering 3,000,000 sq ft of some of the most sustainable, flexible and connected office space in the capital.

As part of our vision to reimagine the public realm outside Baker Street, ourselves and MUF ARCHITECTURE / ART LLP, over the last three weeks.

Proud to see our team making an impact, with CEO Graeme Craig.
Graeme spoke passionately about innovation's critical role in creating sustainable, resilient and better-connected urban spaces. The discussion highlighted how collaborative partnerships between public and private sectors can transform our cities.
🏗️ It was great to be at Build East last week with colleagues from the Greater London Authority. It was inspiring to see how they’re equipping the next generation of builders with the skills to shape London’s future.
These students could soon play a vital role in delivering London’s much-needed new homes across the city, including on some of our very own projects. It’s a reminder that addressing the housing crisis goes hand in hand with supporting the growth of the construction industry and creating opportunities for young people.
