LONDON CITY ISLAND IS LONDON’S NEW ISLAND METROPOLIS, AN ULTRA-CONNECTED DESTINATION OF EXTRAORDINARY CULTURE AND CONTEMPORARY LIVING.
EcoWorld and Ballymore are thrilled to be working together on London City Island, one of the most important
waterside projects London has seen in recent years.
The creation of an exclusive island neighbourhood on one of the best-connected sites in London was once just an
ambitious vision. Now, it is a stunning reality.
Taking inspiration from the best elements from metropolitan islands across the world, but in a way that’s tailor-made for the
twenty-first century, London City Island combines bold architecture and pioneering landscape design to create a spectacular
landmark in riverside living.
More than just a place to live, London City Island is becoming a destination, a vibrant, exciting location that draws from both the business might of neighbouring Canary Wharf and the cultural
energy of East London. Devised to complement the neighbouring business district with a high-end residential offering, this unique
location is at the vanguard of a new wave of investment that will build on and expand the great success story of Canary Wharf.
A POWERFUL PARTNERSHIP THE BEST OF THE EAST & WEST

LONDON CITY ISLAND’S LOCATION HAS ALWAYS BEEN A LIVELY AREA OF COMMERCE. BETWEEN THE EARLY NINETEENTH AND MID TWENTIETH-CENTURY THIS WAS THE SITE OF THE WORLD’S MIGHTIEST DOCKS, THE GRAND MARKETPLACE OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE.
London is one of just a handful of cities that can be described, truly, as a world capital. With its booming economy and highly skilled population, the city offers one of the most investible real estate markets in the world, a status underpinned by stable government, effective regulation and longstanding financial strength.
Like any dynamic city, London is always changing. Those who live here have known for some time that the city’s action, both creative and commercial, has been shifting downriver, towards a new constellation of key eastern suburbs including Canary Wharf, Shoreditch, Hackney and Greenwich. The 2012 Olympics, gathered around Docklands on the Thames and Stratford by the River Lea, revealed London’s new centre of gravity to the rest of the world.
Nothing has symbolised – or driven – this change more visibly than the riverside skyscrapers and busy shops and restaurants of Canary Wharf and Docklands, a globally important financial centre on what was, until the 1980s, the declining former site of the London Docks. The docks stretched from the City of London to Tilbury. Painters and writers would travel here to find inspiration in the spectacular maze of great warehouses and magnificent ships. One of the most active docks belonged to the East India Dock Company, where the Thames met with the mouth of the River Lea, just East of today’s Canary Wharf and next to a large peninsula of land that had once been known as ‘Good Luck Hope’.
THE DOCKLANDS SETS THE STANDARD FOR LONDON’S MOST POWERFUL REGENERATIONS.

The Canary Wharf we see now is one that, in under 30 years, has gone from being the site of a spectacularly ambitious development to one of the most important financial districts in the world. It has become the de facto city centre of London’s rising East, a new Central Business District. The recent decision by Advanced Business Parks (APB) to create a major Chinese business hub and innovation quarters at nearby Royal Albert Dock will transform the 35-acre site into the European headquarters for hundreds of Chinese firms. Together with the proposed Silvertown development (deals worth a total £2.5bn) the evolution and pull of the former Port of London continues apace.
THE ERA OF SEAFARING AND INDUSTRY HAS SINCE BEEN REPLACED BY A NEW AGE, DEFINED, IN THE DOCKLANDS, BY THE TECHNOLOGY AND HIGH FINANCE THAT IS SO KEY TO LONDON’S ECONOMY.

CANARY WHARF
CHINESE BUSINESS HUB
CITY AIRPORT
O2 ARENA
Attracted by flexible workspaces between Shoreditch and the River Lea, from the 1980s onwards creative professionals moved into the area en masse. This was the stomping ground of the Young British Artists, and it is now home to a swathe of internet start-ups. Here is Europe’s densest concentration of artists and creative professionals. There are design and photography studios, architects’ firms and digital technology labs, plus a network of galleries, theatres, bars and restaurants that are increasingly a draw for Londoners from all points of the compass.
You can, of course, still find the living history of old London in Knightsbridge, Bloomsbury and the cobbled streets of the original City. But to see how this ancient metropolis continues to reinvent itself in the twenty-first century, you need to look to the financial and creative energy of the East, and there are few better vantage points than London City Island.
AT THE SAME TIME THAT CANARY WHARF WAS REINVENTED AS AN INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS HUB, THE ARTISAN AND INDUSTRIAL AREAS OF THE INNER EAST WERE ALSO FINDING THEIR VOICE.

ALL THE BENEFITS OF ISLAND LIFE WITH QUICK ACCESS TO THE CITY – CITY ISLAND IS CONNECTED TO THE REST OF LONDON BY A NEW BRIDGE WITH CANNING TOWN STATION A MERE TWO MINUTE STROLL AWAY.
LONDON’S MOST CONNECTED LOCATION, WITH FAST ACCESS TO CANARY WHARF, THE WEST END, THE CITY & BEYOND. GET FROM YOUR FRONT DOOR TO BOND STREET IN 20 MINUTES.
Excellent transport links mean London City Island is very much part of the wider metropolis, with some of London’s best places to shop, work and play within easy reach. Major hub station Canning Town, located just minutes away across the new Island Bridge, offers speedy access to central London and the Square Mile. City Airport serves international destinations as well as European. This connectivity is powering London City Island’s evolution into a magnetic destination for the capital, a maritime setting infused with the energy of London’s key cultural quarters. These links will soon be further enhanced by Crossrail - the high-speed rail link connecting East London and the West at nearby Custom House.
It’s a short trip to the vibrant nightlife and shopping of Shoreditch and Dalston, now home to several cinemas and countless galleries in all shapes and sizes. There are iconic and historic markets such as those at Spitalfields, Columbia Rd and London Fields. There’s Stratford, with the Olympic Park and Westfield shopping centre, offering almost two million square feet of shops and eateries plus a 17-screen Vue cinema and a casino. And there’s Whitechapel with one of London’s finest galleries as well as world-famous curry houses like Tayyab’s and Lahore.
Not to mention the beguiling walkways and ornate riverboats to be explored along the middle sections of the River Lea itself, or the remarkable views of the Thames to be witnessed further east at the award-winning Thames Barrier Park.
Right across the water, the Greenwich Peninsula (reachable by the spectacular Emirates Cable Car or just one stop on the Jubilee Line) houses the vast entertainment complex of the O2 Arena as well as Ravensbourne College, the Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park and public art that includes a 30-metre-high sculpture by Antony Gormley. The nearby Excel Centre is host to a constant stream of visitors who come for an event programme exploring everything from fine wine to fine boats.

The English National Ballet headquarters building will be a hub of creativity, adding energy and atmosphere to the island. The company, founded in 1950, is one of the UK’s leading arts organisations of any kind, and one of the foremost touring companies in Europe. With a staff that includes approximately sixty-five dancers and a symphony orchestra, English National Ballet adds much to London City Island’s trademark mix of the artistic and the artisan.

SIMPLE, STRONG & ARCHITECTURALLY DISTINCTIVE, THE DESIGN FOR LONDON CITY
ISLAND DRAWS INSPIRATION FROM CITIES LIKE CHICAGO – WHERE THE URBAN METROPOLIS IS FRAMED BY A TREE LINED WATERFRONT.
A SINGLE STRIKING COLOUR HAS BEEN CHOSEN FOR EACH OF LONDON CITY ISLAND’S BUILDINGS – BLUE, WHITE, BLACK, ORANGE, RED.
The impressive structures feature high-quality, three-dimensional detailing but also give the impression of each being hewn from a single mass, with varying arrangements of balconies, windows and occasional dramatic recesses (which operate, for example, as communal balconies). The development is being completed with the environment, both visual and ecological, in mind: the construction process for each building is being reviewed against the Code for Sustainable Homes, with active measures being taken to reduce CO2 emissions across the board and increase energy efficiency.
The colours of the Island’s 10 major buildings are not just eye-catching, but link specifically to the local area, replicating pigments used throughout Leamouth’s history of artisan and maritime production. In the world of seafaring, objects have always needed to be legible from a distance. It’s why you’ll find echoes of these colours a little to the south at Trinity Buoy Wharf lighthouse, which is where you’ll also find the source of the distinctive criss-cross ‘Faraday Cage’ pattern that is found throughout the Island, named after the electrical scientist, Michael Faraday, who used the lighthouse for his historic experiments.
A STRIKING CLUSTER OF BUILDINGS SET AGAINST THE DRAMATIC THAMES SKYLINE, THIS
POWERFUL PRESENCE IS DESIGNED TO BE CLEARLY, UNMISTAKEABLY THAT OF LONDON CITY ISLAND.
THE VARIETY OF STYLE, SIZE AND CHARACTER DISPLAYED BY LONDON CITY ISLAND’S BUILDINGS WILL DELIGHT LOVERS
OF CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURE. A TOP PRIORITY OF THE MASTERPLAN IS TO MAXIMISE EACH BUILDING’S RIVER FRONTAGE.

Building heights range from three storeys to 27 storeys, with varying arrangements of balconies, windows and canopies. The Orchard Building, complete with the City Island Arts Club, in-house health and lifestyle facilities, sees its ground floor bisected by a heated outdoor pool alongside the Waterline Park.
London City Island combines the best contemporary architecture with the built vernacular of islands and island-style communities.

On the watery limits of London City Island is Waterline Park, a network of tidal terraces, jetties, knolls and platforms that allow close contact with the river. Some promontories allow you to sit out on a rock and look over the water, while others shoot right down to the water’s edge and take in a lower horizon to those visible from street level. Further north, towards Island Bridge, Trinity Square forms a kind of island marketplace, framed by simple sculptural forms.
AMONG LONDON CITY ISLAND’S SHOPS, AMENITIES AND APARTMENTS ARE A SERIES OF BEAUTIFULLY LANDSCAPED PUBLIC SPACES, CONNECTED BY TRAILS OF THE NEIGHBOURHOOD’S TRADEMARK MARITIME RED.
THE WORD ISLAND DOESN’T JUST MEAN A PIECE OF LAND BOUND BY WATER, IT’S ALSO A PLACE WHICH IS DISTINCT IN SOME WAY TO THE PLACES THAT SURROUND IT.

Few things capture the rise to prominence of London’s eastern environs more succinctly than English National Ballet’s recently-announced move to the heart of London City Island. The organisation’s premises are one of the island’s architectural highlights, with floor-to-ceiling windows allowing passers-by a glimpse of the activity inside. The new headquarters at London City Island will also serve as a home to the renowned English National Ballet School. With dancers and musicians coming and going including world class stars, classes, exhibitions and open access to see what is going on inside, the presence of English National Ballet will add an inspiring note to an extraordinary neighbourhood.

Sizes available vary from a one bedroom suite to an expansive penthouse. Views, whether from metal-framed windows or private balconies, are spectacular in any season or at any time of day. The rivers Thames and Lea are a constant presence,
as are sight lines of landmarks such as the dazzling Canary Wharf cityscape, the otherworldly dome of the O2 Arena, the epochal Olympic Park and the baroque shape of St Paul’s Cathedral, a reminder that the historic City of London is just a short trip on the Docklands Light Railway.

THE APARTMENTS DRAW ON EAST LONDON’S POST-SEAFARING ENERGY, DRAWING DESIGN IDEAS FROM THE HISTORY OF LEAMOUTH AND THE CREATIVE ENERGY OF EAST LONDON AND TYING THEM BACK INTO CLASSIC PRINCIPLES OF FLEXIBLE INTERIOR DESIGN.

Small details are important, occasionally connecting the design ethic with the wider area and its history. Above the composite stone work surface and white wall tiling, a glass panel is tinted the same maritime red as the island bridges and swimming pool.
THE OPEN-PLAN KITCHENS ARE THE HEIGHT OF SMART DESIGN, COMBINING BESPOKE SHELVES AND CABINETS WITH CONCEALED LIGHTING, A HANGING SYSTEM FOR PANS AND KEY UTENSILS AND HIGH-SPEC EUROPEAN BRAND APPLIANCES.

From its beginnings as a family-run house builder in Ireland, Ballymore has grown into an international property investment and development company, focused on large scale projects across the world.
A leader in urban regeneration, Ballymore is notable for the breadth of its involvement, the way in which it leads projects every step of the way. A leading force in the London property market, it has been behind many of the great urban regeneration and masterplanning successes that have come to define the city.
Ballymore’s achievements include playing a key role in the consolidation of Canary Wharf as a world-leading business centre on what was once a derelict dock complex, and the transformation of City fringe district Spitalfields from a semi-industrial zone into a thriving retail and cultural hub. Now, through sites including Embassy Gardens, the Lea Peninsula and Royal Docks, it is a core stakeholder in the most important regeneration projects in London’s future, at all points of the compass.
BALLYMORE HAS A REPUTATION FOR BRINGING NEW LARGE-SCALE PROJECTS INTO LONDON IN A WAY THAT RESPONDS TO THE LOCAL AREA. THE RESULT
