The Silvertown Partnership holds the development rights of Silvertown Quays (pictured above), a major urban renewal project in London’s East End.

The development – which has an estimated end development value of £3.5bn – will provide seven million sq ft of residential and commercial space.

Silvertown Quays is strategically located between Canary Wharf and London City Airport and is also well connected to existing DLR stations adjacent to the site.

Dan Labbad, CEO of international operations at Lendlease, said that London was universally recognised as one of the world’s most exciting cities.

“In order to maintain its rich mix of cultures and people, the city must continue to deliver projects like Silvertown Quays.

“Working in partnership, we plan to create a place that’s innovative and environmentally sustainable, and will provide tangible benefits for the local community for the long term. 

“These are standards and commitments we apply to all our work and Silvertown Quays is no exception.”

Jeff Dishner, global head of real estate acquisitions at Starwood Capital, added: “We are excited to partner with Lendlease on this prominent east London regeneration scheme that will help address London’s much-needed affordable housing and private residential demand. 

“We believe in London’s long-term growth potential and are confident that the underlying value for this waterfront site will benefit from Crossrail connections and deliver a new gateway destination creating a strong visitor experience. 

“Working with Lendlease, our vision is to invest significantly into the infrastructure around the site and create a completely new and creative neighbourhood that meets consumer demand, reinvigorates London’s East End and delivers for our investors.”
