Harbour Central

in London

What are the whereabouts of Harbour Central?

Harbour Central is placed on the Isle of Dogs within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. The financial centre of Canary Wharf with its thriving nightlife, high-end restaurants, and towering skyscrapers is only 5 minutes away. If you are in need of some serious retail therapy, the vibrant district offers a nice collection of shopping centres and high-end boutiques.

Surrounded by waterways, the complex enjoys stunning water sceneries, coupled with beautifully-landscaped parks. Offering panoramic views of the city, there is a charming path along the River Thames that leads to Sir John McDougall Gardens, a wonderful place for relaxing and recharging. Another leafy retreat is located on the eastern side of the Isle. Millwall Park provides a wider range of facilities, including football and cricket pitches. Animal lovers will be delighted to know that the park is adjacent to Mudchute Park and Farm that offers animal encounter sessions. A stone’s throw away from it, there is Mudchute Equestrian Centre.

Thanks to the rapidly growing district of Canary Wharf, Harbour Central boasts a wealth of transport options, including a link to Jubilee Line, a couple of DLR stations, and the upcoming Crossrail station that will let you reach Heathrow Airport in just 39 minutes. For those who would like to experience a picturesque ride along the river, Thames Clipper provides commuter and visitor shuttles from the nearby Canary Wharf Pier.

What are the technical features of the complex?

Spread across 2,65 acres, Harbour Central consists of five high-rise residential buildings and a leisure complex. The focal point of the complex is the 42-storey Maine Tower, placed right in the middle. Towering over its neighbours, the fully-glazed skyscraper has a distinctive appearance. The façade features a grid, made of bronze panels, that creates an illusion of separate blocks that stand on each other. The enormous floor-to-ceiling windows along with glass balconies are perfectly woven into the sleek contemporary design.

What is available on-site?

Harbour Central includes amazing green spaces for a tranquil walk such as sunken and raised landscaped gardens that are endowed with water fountains and art sculptures. The ambitious development also provides space for restaurants, retail units, and offices.

Placed in an adjoining building, the Residents’ Club provides amazing lifestyle and recreational facilities, including a state-of-the-art gym, a spa, a cosy library, business suites, and a private cinema to enjoy a movie with your family and friends.

The new complex is serviced by a 24-hour concierge offering a warm welcome to all visitors. Harbour Central also includes a secure underground parking area.
