Its foodie reputation in the country. No other area in London has the same dynamic and grows and grows, with the first branch of Jamie Oliver’s ‘Jamie’s progressive live/work balance, and nowhere else has such smooth Italian’, D&D’s spectacular Saarinen-furnished Plateau and and efficient transport links. Over 100,000 people work here, for some an outpost of the chic contemporary Japanese, Roka. The nearby of the world’s most powerful companies including Barclays, Credit O2 Arena is now the important arts stadium in the capital – host Suisse, HSBC and Citigroup.

BPL2005AW_Baltimore_B_XXZXX.qxd:Layout 1 3/11/10 15:05 Page 8 dazzled Baltimore Wharf has magnificent architectural pedigree. Skidmore, Owings and Merrill are among the most ambitious and accomplished architects of the past 100 years. Their previous buildings include Sears Tower in Chicago and the Lever House building in Manhattan – the most elegant, perfect skyscraper ever constructed. Next on the agenda for SOM, the most famous building in the world: New York’s Freedom Tower. Baltimore is an iconic, ingenious residential masterpiece – a harmonious blend of different textures and styles, from classic brick to futurist quartz. SOM’s design juxtaposes the low rise linear components with a stunning cylindrical high-rise tower, that twists around its own axis; a shifting, hypnotic, rhythmical crystal, light and steel hourglass structure. Floor to ceiling glass- fronted apartments are structured around the Avenue, an expansive modern interpretation of the European boulevard: a serene inner space balanced by angular landscaping, with a line of sculptural black monoliths turned into liquid mirrors by a surface of constantly cascading water. Baltimore’s central boulevard, overlooked by private glass-walled balconies, stems from a seven-storey portal by the docks, a dramatic, geometric aperture with a constellation of stars from the northern skies glowing within its roof. BPL2005AW_Baltimore_B_XXZXX.qxd:Layout 1 3/11/10 15:05 Page 10 individual This is modern living reconceptualised, redesigned and perfected, ground floor of the Avenue, with its floor to ceiling windows and offering infinite possibilities for the most discerning and demanding galleried bedrooms. Personalise regular business trips to the capital urban professionals. Baltimore is a frame and blank canvas for any with a state-of-the-art studio base, complete with ergonomic, kind of portrait that you want to create. Open a bottle of Cloudy Bay foldaway facilities. From a pied à terre to a penthouse, this and relax on a glass balcony overlooking the dock and skyscrapers of is Docklands’ most flexible high-end residential opportunity – Canary Wharf. Host a dinner in your double-height duplex on the exquisitely tailored, always a perfect fit. BPL2005AW_Baltimore_B_XXZXX.qxd:Layout 1 3/11/10 15:05 Page 12 in total balance Your new home isn’t just in the centre of the most exciting and inspiring part of the capital, it’s the new focal point of it. With the high gloss of retail, dining and the most stylish and cutting edge leisure facilities in the capital all designed into the development, an apartment at Baltimore is a destination in its own right. Few homes in London have such a dynamic array of possibilities, designed to combine total peace and privacy with the buzz of fashion, food and nightlife. Go to work, work out, stay out, stay home, sleep tight – this is London life at its most fantastic, thrilling and luxurious. BPL2005AW_Baltimore_B_XXZXX.qxd:Layout 1 3/11/10 15:05 Page 14 inspired Breaking with convention and throwing away rule books is embedded in Ballymore’s DNA. Just look at the soaring elegance of Pan Peninsula’s two towers and sharply focused Ontario Tower and you’ll understand that. Both developments have now become established as essential ingredients of the Docklands skyline. And Docklands is the home of the high rise, where the buildings compete to out dazzle each other as they reach for the sky. So where better for Ballymore to raise the bar again in the high rise stakes than at Baltimore. Here to punctuate the low and mid rise elements of the development and add a visual anchor to the form, Ballymore have planned a jaw dropping focal point. A stunning forty seven storey cylindrical tower that appears to defy gravity by twisting a helix coil around its axis. A hypnotic shifting crystal of glass that’s destined to be a new London landmark and potential Sterling prize winner.

Pan Peninsula is the largest residential building in the Isle of Dogs, comprising some 760 privately owned flats and home to well over 1,000 residents. We are the largest single group of local home owners and residents who would be materially and directly affected by the proposed South Quay Plaza development. This letter is supplementary to, and should be read in conjunction with, our related letter of 5th June 2014. As such, we will not expressly repeat here the points made in our earlier letter, but those points are strongly reaffirmed. We also repeat our request that I be allowed to speak at the Strategic Planning Committee hearing at which this application is considered. We are not in the least opposed to further residential development on the Isle of Dogs. Indeed we strongly support it as long as it is in proportion to the infrastructure needed and available to sustain it, and does not detract from the quality of life for those of us already living here or the value of our homes.

Summary Grant Planning Permission subject to conditions Recommendation Applicant Quay House Admirals Way Land Ltd Architect/agent Savills Case Officer Kevin Crilly Key dates Application validated 08/07/2019 Public consultation finished on 23/08/2019 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The proposed development would deliver a single 40 storey building consisting of a 400 bed hotel and separate 279 bed serviced apartment use with an ancillary restaurant at ground floor level. In land use terms, given the sites location within the Isle of Dogs Opportunity Area and the Isle of Dogs Activity Area, a proposed hotel and serviced apartments is considered appropriate for this location.

The building is considered to deliver a unique and high quality design which would be a positive contribution to the area. The landscaping works and the activation of the ‘Underline’ below the DLR is considered to be a positive improvement which would provide improved pedestrian access to the dockside and improve pedestrian routes towards Canary Wharf.
