One Park Drive is a stunning new development designed by Herzog & de Meuron and is the signature building of the new residential district in Canary Wharf, London. The 128-acre Canary Wharf Estate is internationally renowned as one of London’s most vibrant districts and with a unique waterside location. The circular form of the new tower clearly distinguishes itself from its orthogonal neighbors. The planning grid is rotated 45 degrees from true North to optimize sunlight exposure to each unit.
One Park Drive is a single harmonious building; however, its 58 stories are made up of three typologies, each with its own distinct characteristics. The lower floors contain the Loft apartments - some of One Park Drive's largest apartments. With high ceilings and wrap-around terraces, they are designed to make the most of the connection to both the green spaces and the waterfront. The Cluster forms the heart of the building. It is the typology that contains the greatest variety of apartments. The upper floors contain the Bay apartments predominantly made up of larger two- and three-bedroom units. They have double-height terraces which are set back into the building.
The top two floors of the building are arranged into a series of 7 duplex penthouse apartments of varying sizes. The reception, concierge, lounge, library and cinema are all on the ground floor. The first floor houses the exclusive health club including a 20-meter pool, gym, studio space and spa. Dramatic floor-to-ceiling glazing invites stunning views across the surrounding parks, gardens and water.
