Unprecedented in its scale and ambition, One Thames City promises an entirely new level of modern luxury living. With an array of premium residences, exclusive shops, restaurants and eateries, it's much more than a new development: it's London's newest district. 

The site includes twelve buildings (including three iconic towers) rising up from an area that was previously home to the New Covent Garden flower market. Built by the R&F Group in a joint venture with CC Land and designed by internationally acclaimed architects Skidmore Owings & Merrill LLP (SOM), it offers 1,417 new homes. The development will also include over 120,000 square feet of commercial space.  

Talking to NineElmsLondon.com, Guan Zhixiong, Chairman of R&F Group UK, said: “We believe One Thames City will set a new standard globally for mixed use projects”, adding: “We take great pride in the detail of what we build, and residents and their families are the focus for everything we do.”
