One Crown PlaceThe jewel in the city’s crown
One Crown PlaceDevelopment overview
Reflecting the old-meets-new character of the City and Hackney, One Crown Place comprises existing period buildings with two new residential towers offering 246 apartments. The six-floor podium features 15,500 sq m of high-quality office space, with a variety of retail space at ground level including a boutique hotel and members’ club.
The residences’ living spaces define modern-day elegance. Quietly luxurious, carefully sourced materials from across the globe sit side by side with details influenced by their eclectic surroundings, while clever zoning creates flexible living and entertaining areas. The result is a beautifully designed building with light-filled spaces that are warm but contemporary, industrial yet glamorous.

Location
From One Crown Place’s prime location, navigating London’s most exciting neighbourhoods couldn’t be simpler. Just a few minutes from Liverpool Street Station, and with Shoreditch and Old Street a short walk away, there’s plenty to explore in the local area. The rest of London, from the West End to Canary Wharf, is within a Tube journey, plus there are quick connections to all London’s airports. What’s more, with Crossrail services scheduled to begin at Liverpool Street Station in 2018, travelling both east and west will be even faster and more efficient.
Liverpool Street 3 minutes
Old Street 8 minutes
Bank 13 minutes
Shoreditch High Street 12 minutes
The nearest new Crossrail station will be at Liverpool Street Station and this will open in December 2018. This will shorten travel times to Bond Street (7 minutes) and Heathrow (35 minutes). Similarly, the East London Line and the Thameslink expansion programme will add another layer of connectivity. This could be the most well connected new development in London with Liverpool Street Station, Moorgate and Old Street all within close proximity.

City lifestyle
One Crown Place is perfectly situated to benefit from the cultural and business hub of the City, as well as the plethora of amenities offered by its bordering districts which include the trendy neighbourhoods of Shoreditch and Spitalfields.
The City, London’s most historic district, has been dramatically transformed in recent years. Once only a place of work, residential development is now actively encouraged. This has brought with it cool new bars and restaurants, boutique fitness studios and pop-ups. This new chapter for the City means that as well as being London’s business centre, it’s now also a place where people come to relax and have fun.
One Crown Place also neighbours Tech City, which has evolved into the epicentre of the UK’s booming tech industry. Launched in 2010 the area has grown from hosting a few fledging technology start-ups to now accommodating the largest concentration of technology companies in the UK. This concentration of young creatives and professionals have created a buzzing social scene.
One Crown Place also sits on the doorstep of Shoreditch. This previously deprived area is now one of London’s most fashionable neighbourhoods. Among its former warehouses, you’ll now find an irresistible mix of Michelin-starred restaurants, street-food outlets, designer boutiques, art galleries and trendy bars. Adjacent to Shoreditch is the rejuvenated district of Spitalfields. Its eponymous market has been completely redeveloped and also included two new public spaces, an arts and events programme and the restoration of several

Getting around
One Crown Place benefits from being located in close proximity to a number of key transport hubs. In particular it is a few minutes’ walk from Liverpool Street station with Shoreditch, Moorgate and Old Street close by; between them this gives residents access to over five tube lines.
The rest of the city is easily accessible and there are fast connections to all London’s airports. In addition, Crossrail will open at Liverpool Street in 2018 meaning travelling across the city will be even faster and more efficient.

The City is one of London’s prime business hubs. It accommodates traditional companies across the financial services, accounting and insurance sectors but now also hosts numerous creative and tech companies. One Crown Place is perfectly positioned on the border of the City and benefits from being neighbours to its principal office campus known as The Broadgate Estate (see box 1).
Over the past decade the core office market has expanded into the City’s border area into districts like Clerkenwell, Shoreditch and Old Street. New grade A office space has sprung up in these markets, replacing the older stock and attracting numerous high profile companies: Amazon will move to its new UK headquarters in Shoreditch this year, adding 5,000 workers to the area. As a result, these areas are now considered part of the core office markets in London.
Over the last few years the City and border markets have also benefitted from an eastward migration of companies from the West End. In 2016 an estimated 500,000 sq ft of office space left the West End market and moved to the City.
Perhaps one of the main contributors to growth in both the City and its surrounds has been the exponential rise of the technology sector. The area now hosts more than 10,000 technology businesses that employ 70,000 people and generate over £12bn of annual revenues.
The rise of the sector began from its epicentre at Old Street in Shoreditch, with a cluster of emerging technology companies at Old Street roundabout. This has now expanded with more than 3,200 tech companies per square kilometre now concentrated in the area, which is now
known as Tech City. This spread has in-turn led to the emergence of new clusters of digital and tech companies in areas including Clerkenwell, Angel and Kings Cross. This is resulting in a further influx of workers and residents to the City and its border neighbourhoods.
The now established market in the City border will continue to attract companies, bringing further influxes of workers and residents to the area. This will be combined with the continued expansion of the City, where an additional 50,000 workers are forecast over the next decade. This will all translate into persistently strong demand for homes in the area.
The City, or Square Mile, is the epicentre of London business. It currently hosts almost 400,000 workers with a further 50,000 expected over the next decade. This, combined with a raft of other factors, means residential developments in the area will be in high demand.

The campus is managed by British Land, one of the UK’s largest real estate companies. It is home to some of the world’s biggest corporations and top professional practices and hosts over 30,000 workers.
British Land’s vision for the campus is to create a mixed-use, world class destination. In line with this the estate is undergoing extensive redevelopment, something that One Crown Place will also benefit from. The company completed the refurbishment of 5 Broadgate in 2015, with the world class office building forming the new headquarters of UBS.
The redevelopment of a further building on the estate, 100 Liverpool Street, is now underway. This will add 140,000 sq ft of office space to the existing building, along with 90,000 sq ft of high quality retail space. It will also improve local connections and public spaces between 100 Liverpool Street, Liverpool Street Station and Broadgate Circle. Future development opportunities on the estate include the refurbishment of 1 Finsbury Avenue and the redevelopment of 2–3 Finsbury Avenue.

The Broadgate Estate is one of the City’s main commercial districts. It covers more than 4.7 million sq ft and hosts a multitude of multi-national companies. One Crown Place sits adjacent to the estate and is therefore well positioned for the existing 30,000 strong workforce, particularly those who are private renters.

ClerkenwellClerkenwell is a well-established cluster with a high concentration of advertising, marketing, communications and branding agencies. Farringdon station will also open to Crossrail in 2018 and it will further benefit from the £6.5bn Thameslink improvement programme.
Tech CityThe government formally announced its support to develop Tech City in 2010. Today the area hosts more than 3,200 technology firms per square kilometre and is fuelling the emergence of new tech clusters.
London Bridge / BermondseyThe area is experiencing increasingly significant levels of startup activity, particularly in the tech and creative industries.
Canary WharfCanary Wharf is home to Europe’s largest financial-tech (fintech) and retail start-up accelerator space situated on levels 24, 39 and 42 of One Canada Tower. The area now accommodates 170 fintech start-ups spanning 80,000 sq ft of office space.
Kings Cross£550m of regeneration means Kings Cross is now home to leading businesses, academic institutions and a plethora of organisations well positioned to develop London’s digital economy. Overall the area will receive £4.5bn of investment and up to 30,000 people will be living, working and studying in the area by 2016. It will also become home to Google in 2017, bringing a further 4,500 employees. Typically, office rents in Kings Cross have traded at a discount to the City core. However, average rents have now overtaken the core and are currently priced at a 20% premium, illustrating the level of demand for office space in the area.

One Crown PlaceCBRE Research
The City of London Corporation now actively encourages residential development. This, along with a range of other uses including retail and restaurants which have made the City a vibrant place to live as well as work. As a result the number of people living in the area has increased by 60% since 2001 and a further 3,500 residents are expected over the next 10 years.
In tandem with this has been the transformation of the area bordering the City. Previously run-down neighbourhoods like Clerkenwell, Hoxton, Shoreditch and Spitalfields are now extremely fashionable and their homes highly sought after. The result has been a 21% increase in the areas population, equating to an extra 45,000 people. The neighbourhoods draw residents from across London, including the employment hubs of Canary Wharf and the West End, as well as the City, where salaries average between £50,000 and £80,000 per year.
The City was once only a place of work, but this has changed, with residential development actively encouraged. This has been combined with the transformation of neighbourhoods like Shoreditch and Clerkenwell which means that homes in and around the City are constantly in high demand.
The housing market in the City has performed strongly. Over the five years average house prices have increased by 65%, equating to annual growth of 12.2%. This compares with total growth of 47% in prime central London, or 8.3% per annum.
Average house prices in the area are currently £790,000, a premium of 64% compared with London.
In recent years the City’s housing market has recorded significant growth and average house prices now contend with those in traditional prime central London.
Crossrail will also boost the housing markets in both the City and the surrounding area. Overall, we project that house prices will increase by an additional 3.3% in the areas surrounding the stations. Specifically, prices surrounding Liverpool Street will be boosted by a further 4.8% per annum on top of standard price inflation.

The City Prime Central London London
As a result, the City and its border are dominated by the socio-economic group known as ‘city prosperity’, one of the highest earning cohorts. They typically work in high-status positions in key financial and professional organisations and command substantial salaries. The tech industry is also bringing a new wave of these residents to the area. As a result there are a high proportion of high earners (£60,000 pa+) in the area with those in the City’s bordering neighbourhoods relatively younger. More than 40% of high-earning residents in the neighbouring districts are between 18 and 35 years old. This compares with approximately a quarter in the City and traditional prime central London.

However, not everyone will own their own home which has resulted in a large population of affluent renters in the area. Between 2001 and 2011 the private rented sector in the City has increased by 50% and it has more than doubled in the bordering neighbourhoods. This equates to an increase of more than 5,000 private rented households across the area. One Crown Place for example, is located on the doorstep of Shoreditch and Spitalfields where the number of private renters has increased by 154% and 164% respectively, totalling an additional 2,000 households.
There are currently 20,000 private renters living nearby to One Crown Place earning over £50,000 per annum. Almost one fifth of these earn more than £100,000 per annum. The transient nature of renters’ means there is a large population of tenants for investors at One Crown Place to draw from.
The City was once only a place of work, but this has changed, with residential development actively encouraged. This has been combined with the transformation of neighbourhoods like Shoreditch and Clerkenwell which means that homes in and around the City are constantly in high demand.
