Rising in the east
Run by Canary Wharf Group, our estate is the largest urban regeneration project in Europe. Over the last 30 years, we’ve given new life to 128 acres in east London’s former Docklands. And our ambitious spirit remains just as strong today. Imagining new ideas, helping businesses grow and people live well.
