Abbott's Wharf
Abbott’s Wharf is an award winning, mixed-use, development on the Limehouse Cut, which forms an elegant civic landmark and contributes to the regeneration of the former dockyards. The high quality development consists of two raised communal courtyards, 201 residential apartments and commercial space in four new buildings which are sited perpendicular to a new mooring basin. The apartments graduate in scale from four to 13 storey blocks along the edge of the canal enabling the massing of the buildings to integrate with the surrounding low rise buildings. The crisp, white render walls, to each building, are articulated by an abstract composition of windows, lively coloured render panels and projecting balconies, which benefit from impressive southerly or westerly views of the canal, park and nearby Canary Wharf.
