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 are on-site building 4,400 new homes across London, and have plans to build thousands more. And by homes we mean sustainable, desirable, beautiful homes, many of them affordable – where Londoners can grow their roots.
