The Evening Standard predicts that the Isle of Dogs, already being transformed by countless new residential developments, will truly come into its own next year, with the opening of the Canary Wharf stop on the Elizabeth Line next year. The new transport link, which will take journey times into Liverpool Street down from 22 minutes to just six, is being accompanied by new projects to bring life to the area at weekends, such as the Museum of London Docklands, community activities at the Crossrail Place Roof Garden, and open air events such as an ice skating rink and food markets. Among the new-build developments are Herzog & de Meuron’s One Park Drive, where prices start at £575,000 for a studio apartment, South Quay Plaza where a home can be bought for £770,000, and Lansbury Square, where Bellway Homes has one-bed apartments available for £387,995.
