A new housing development at Blackwall, on the Thames waterfront is due to be ready by the end of the year, and is being marketed as ideal for keen cyclists. The Jessops tower block scheme, part of Ballymore’s New Providence Wharf development, features uniquely low-cost housing just a stone’s throw from Canary Wharf, and sits on top of the Cycle Highway, which passes through Poplar and Limehouse to the City and beyond. The scheme is being aimed at first-time buyers earning below £71,000 a year, and offers the option for shared ownership. Prices start at £93,688 for a 25% share of a one-bedroom flat, based on a full market-value of £374,750.
