Rising above the vibrant Canary Wharf district, this 32-story glass and aluminium-clad high-rise reflects the neighbouring towers. Its sweeping curve echoes the water's edge.
The tight urban site, dual-use cores, complex ground conditions and challenging occupancy requirements presented many design opportunities.
The tower includes 279 rooms, 22 suites, 47 serviced apartments and 158 luxury apartments. The five-star Marriott Hotel occupies the lower 12 stories. The terracotta podium, which relates to the nearby Victorian warehouse residential conversions, contains restaurants, bars, banquet halls and other public areas.
This is one of the largest proposed developments in London, with more than four million square feet between two office towers of 36 and 39 storeys and a 16-storey office building. All three buildings are linked with bridging floors that provide large open floor plates suitable for trading and sheltered public circulation and function areas below. The dock edge is lined with more than 30,000 sq.ft. of retail space.
