“Bankside Yards is meeting the growing demand from both residential buyers and commercial occupiers to live and work in a more responsible, health-conscious, and sustainable way.”
Nicholas Gray, Executive Director at Native Land, recently sat down with Lux Magazine to discuss our pioneering 5.5-acre sustainable riverside development, Bankside Yards.
Discussing the ‘future-focused regeneration project’, which includes the tallest residential building in prime central London, Opus and a new 5* Mandarin Oriental Hotel, Nicholas highlighted how the scale of the project reflected Bankside Yards’ strategic location in a global gateway city.
What will Bankside Yards offer to Southwark?
- Over 50% of the development is allocated to the public realm: The previously closed site will provide a new lifestyle offering for the South Bank, as well as cultural spaces.
- Deliver hundreds of new homes, which will enjoy the benefits of a pioneering energy-sharing network – the first of its scale in the UK.
- The ‘greened’ public realm includes planting 150 new trees of 20 different species and creating biodiverse roofs on six of the development’s eight buildings. This will support the mayor’s commitment to a 10% increase in London’s tree canopy cover by 2050.
Opus will be launching in Spring 2025. Read more via Lux Magazine: Bankside Yards, London’s new sustainable luxury property development – Lux Magazine
