Hanover House echoes other famous towers along this stretch of the river, including Tate Modern. Cambridge House takes the historic landmarks as its reference and also draws on the landscaping of More London. Peaceful havens Residents have exclusive access to an appealing private courtyard garden above the cultural space at first-floor level. Beautifully landscaped, the garden will consist of three individually designed areas, each characterised by its own unique water feature, including a dancing fountain, lily pond and stone bubbler fountain. This space will be planted with a variety of shrubs and trees including hornbeam, magnolia and multi-stem pine. Granite seating looks onto a formal lawn and lavender has been planted to enhance the tranquil atmosphere. One Tower Bridge sits directly next door to Potters Fields Park, a peaceful landscaped space with attractive lawns and flowerbeds. It forms part of the Thames Walk, which extends in both directions along the banks of the river. Interactive Water Clock The main square at One Tower Bridge features a remarkable centre piece. A Water Clock Fountain has 48 LED colour-changing jets surrounding a series of white vertical jets representing the 12-hour clock. The result is a beautiful and ever-changing spectacle. Using interactive floor pads to control the 24 parabolic ‘dancing’ jets, residents will be able to choreograph their own water display, as the dancing jets leap from the floor into one side of the clock. The clock fountain can even be set to reveal a specific time-zone – New York, Moscow, Tokyo. Jets surrounding the fountain along a 54-metre channel will also create an evocative mist, adding to the striking atmosphere.
