Location is more than geography
What that looks like for every occupier varies; some have a need to be in a specific area to be near to clients or suppliers. But for those who are location-agnostic, it’s about finding a building near to where things happen. Staff want to be close to transport hubs, shops and restaurants, so they can meet contacts for lunch, go for a drink after work or do some shopping at lunchtime.
British Land and AustralianSuper’s Canada Water development, nestled between the Southbank to the west and Canary Wharf over the river to the east, is a thriving new location that is on track to be one of the next major London destinations.
Canada Water’s history is long and varied, having been an industrial dock in the past, but it’s now home to a growing ecosystem of offices, lab space, event space, world-class retail and leisure outlets, with the renowned Printworks venue returning in the next few years. It sits at the junction of the Jubilee line and Windrush Overground line and is just one stop from the Elizabeth line at Canary Wharf. It’s less than 15 minutes to the West End and the City, and about 20 minutes from London City Airport, making it ideal for domestic and international access.
