Bermondsey Street
Bermondsey Street, London SE1
Bermondsey Street attracts a mixture of old and new, with its close proximity to the City (London's 'Square Mile' is within walking distance - just across World famous Tower Bridge) and its traditional antique shops, galleries, studios, famous antiques market and a plethora of fashion designers both famous and up and coming, thus making Southwark one of the most exciting, fashionable and fastest developing areas of London.
Bermondsey St Market is set to benefit from a £25M regeneration grant, and it is no accident that the Lord Mayor has chosen to position his own offices in a prime location on the Riverside within minutes walking distance of Bermondsey Street, The Tate Modern, Bankside Gallery, Dali Universe, Design Museum, The Globe Theatre, The Tower Of London and many other of the Capital's World status locations.
Similarly this co-existence of history meets state of the art urban living and is reflected in the breathtaking views over The Thames of retrospective and coeval architecture such as Tower Bridge, The Tower Of London, The Gherkin, Canary Wharf and, prospectively, the soon to be built London Bridge Tower - “The Shard Of Glass”. This building will become a world landmark and will be the tallest building in Europe housing some 10,000 workers.
Unlike stocks and shares and pensions the property market has continued to rise significantly, confirming that old adage that “bricks and mortar” and “safe as houses” really is correct.
