This development is delivering a new neighbourhood to the heart of London: a contemporary address built on the foundations of a global British icon - Royal Mail.
Formerly the site of its flagship London sorting office, it will now be home to a new collection of apartments, tranquil open spaces and an array of complementary shops and restaurants.

The first phase will introduce 151 stylish studio, one, two and three-bedroom apartments impeccably presented in over 60 individual styles.

The development will create a bustling new neighbourhood in the heart of central London, offering an exciting mix of stylishly designed apartments and carefully curated retail, leisure and commercial spaces. Leading the last major regeneration project to take place in zone 1, it will be delivered over multiple distinct phases, due to be completed by 2025.

The development is nestled at the dynamic intersection of Bloomsbury, King’s Cross, Clerkenwell and Farringdon, known respectively as the literary, knowledge and creative hubs of central London. A delightful mix of the traditional and the cutting-edge, this is fast becoming London’s most desirable neighbourhood for those lucky enough to be in the know.

Educational

London’s esteemed educational institutions have been producing the world’s most talented minds for centuries. Nelson Mandela, David Attenborough, Virginia Woolf and Florence Nightingale are just a few of the city’s impressive alumni. The development’s central location puts you within easy reach of some of the most outstanding colleges and universities, including two Royal Academies, the London School of Economics, SOAS and Central St Martins. Prestigious primary and secondary schools such as the Lyceum Preparatory School, Westminster School and the City of London School for Girls are all a short drive away.
