a global icon in central london

Battersea Power Station is one of the world’s most famous buildings and is at the heart of Central London’s most visionary and eagerly anticipated new development. Built in the 1930s, and designed by one of Britain’s best 20th century architects, Battersea Power Station is one of London’s most loved and

recognisable landmarks. Shortly after its completion and commissioning it was described by the Observer newspaper as ‘One of the finest sights in London’.

The development that is now underway at Battersea Power Station will transform this great industrial monument into the centrepiece of London’s greatest destination development.

The Power Station was sited very carefully when it was built. It was needed close to the centre, but had to be right on the river. It was to be very accessible, but not part of London’s congestion. The result is that the Power Station is in the heart of Central London and within 5 minutes of the Houses of Parliament. It is firmly within the Central Activity Zone, but is also in one of the capital’s most desirable residential neighbourhoods and surrounded by parks and gardens. And, with over 400 m of direct river frontage, it has a unique and extraordinary prospect.

Battersea Power Station itself sits at the junction of three important Central London Districts, and within an expanding transport network.

The shops and destinations of Chelsea are within walking distance just across Chelsea Bridge, as are The Royal Hospital and Sloane Square. Battersea Park, Battersea Station and Queenstown Road Station are next door, providing frequent rail access to Victoria & Waterloo Stations.

The Vauxhall Nine Elms area, immediately to the east, provides fast access to the City by road and by the overland and underground network at the Zone 1 Vauxhall transport interchange. London’s key airports are easily accessed – Heathrow by car along the A4, or by train from Paddington, and Gatwick by train from nearby Victoria.

The greatest impact will be the completion of a new Northern Line Extension to the London underground network, which will begin at Battersea Power Station and connect into the wider Tube network at Kennington. Confirmation that the UK Government will be providing a loan to fund the extension came from the Chancellor of the Exchequer in December 2012, and has been widely viewed as the one of the most important new infrastructure projects in the UK. In practical terms it will lead to a new Tube station being constructed at the foot of the Power Station’s new High Street.

CITY

Battersea Power Station is the pivotal junction between the established identity and desirability of Chelsea and Battersea, and the extraordinary developments underway in the Vauxhall Nine Elms corridor. With one foot in each place, Battersea Power Station has the power to derive benefit from and provide benefit to them all.

The houses and residences in Chelsea and Battersea are some of the most desirable in London, and all are within a few minutes of the Power Station.

Furthermore the Vauxhall Nine Elms Opportunity Area on the eastern edge of the Power Station makes up one of the largest city centre redevelopment plans in Europe. When complete it will include a new Nine Elms town centre, a redeveloped Covent Garden Fruit and Vegetable Market, an extension to the Northern Line and a new Battersea Power Station Tube stop, the new US Embassy, two new public parks, 1.5 million sq ft of retail, up to 15,000 new homes and 2.5 million sq ft of office space.

Battersea Power Station has been envisaged as a complete place, that offers the fullest range of experiences to the people that live, work and visit there. It has taken best-practice and thinking from around the world to develop a vision that will deliver a creative place as authentic as the Power Station itself.

The ambition for this development has been to create a vibrant and holistic new town centre where people come to live, work, socialise, enjoy the arts, explore the

shops, experience the Power Station or simply stroll along the riverside walkway to the adjoining 200-acre Battersea Park.

Creating that sort of balance means really understanding what makes a location one where people want to spend time. Battersea Power Station will be a place that lifts the spirit and excites the senses. A place that people will love.

We are creating a town centre where people live in thoughtfully appointed, flexibly designed homes which make the most of views over the river, across the park or onto the iconic Power Station itself. They have been tailored to residents’ needs, now, and into the future.

But we have also considered people’s personal needs, so on the doorstep will be a rich fabric of social and recreational opportunities.

From a state-of-the-art gymnasium through to a brand new park, cinema and theatre alongside exciting arts and exhibition spaces, Battersea Power Station will be a place to broaden horizons and feed the spirit.

When it comes to shops, cafes, restaurants and bars people will not only have the reassurance that comes from familiar high street brands, there will also be a genuine variety of independent boutiques and hospitality – variety that we all know is important in distinguishing one town centre from any other.

For those who want a more intimate environment, there will be private dining suites, concierge services for apartments, rooftop terraces and enclosed gardens.

But quality of life shouldn’t be confined to leisure time, working space is just as important. That’s why the office space we are creating will be similarly rewarding with high-spec offices which are flexibly structured to accommodate everything from single person start-ups looking for shared workspace and facilities through to large-scale, fully serviced corporate headquarters.

Spaces in which people will flourish

The first phase of the redevelopment of Battersea Power Station will create an urban village – a village that is a self-sustaining and vibrant community in its own right, right from day one. As well as the 850 apartments across 8 blocks, Circus West has a range of amenities and services that will make it both a destination and a landmark. The ground floor podium is surrounded by 10 restaurants, providing a range

of styles and types, from informal and family dining to high-end chains and destination one-off eateries and bars. There will be a fresh food/convenience store, a dry cleaner and Power Station Design shop, and also art galleries, a crèche and independent coffee shops. There will be a boutique theatre, 35,000 sq ft of creative business studios and a 15,000 sq ft gym, pool and health spa.
