Its reputation as one of London’s most popular destinations is now undisputed. The Southbank is a modern and dynamic area and the residential offering reflects this. There is enormous demand for residential property along the South Bank. As well as prospering at overseas exhibitions, many new schemes have been hugely popular with the domestic audience such as City workers, lawyers, media types and downsizers. Furthermore, there has been significant growth in the student population in the South Bank. Many of these are from overseas, with a significant number of parents buying or renting in new developments for their children who study here. The Southbank is a truly mixed use residential and commercial hub. Stretching from Westminster Bridge to Tower Bridge, this stunning riverside location is a first choice headquarters destination. The Southbank is attracting an increasingly diverse range of occupiers.

  • Conservation Management Plan for the National Theatre Haworth Tompkins
    Conservation Management Plan For The National Theatre Final Draft December 2008 Haworth Tompkins Conservation Management Plan for the National Theatre Final Draft - December 2008 Haworth Tompkins Ltd 19-20 Great Sutton Street London EC1V 0DR Front Cover: Haworth Tompkins Ltd 2008 Theatre Square entrance, winter - HTL 2008 Foreword When, in December 2007, Time Out magazine celebrated the National Theatre as one of the seven wonders of London, a significant moment in the rising popularity of the building had occurred. Over the decades since its opening in 1976, Denys Lasdun’s building, listed Grade II* in 1994. has come to be seen as a London landmark, and a favourite of theatre-goers. The building has served the NT company well. The innovations of its founders and architect – the ampleness of the foyers, the idea that theatre doesn’t start or finish with the rise and fall of the curtain – have been triumphantly borne out. With its Southbank neighbours to the west of Waterloo Bridge, the NT was an early inhabitant of an area that, thirty years later, has become one of the world’s major cultural quarters. The river walk from the Eye to the Design Museum now teems with life - and, as they pass the National, we do our best to encourage them in. The Travelex £10 seasons and now Sunday opening bear out the theatre’s 1976 slogan, “The New National Theatre is Yours”. Greatly helped by the Arts Council, the NT has looked after the building, with a major refurbishment in the nineties, and a yearly spend of some £2million on fabric, infrastructure and equipment.
