Thanks to its long and rich cultural history, London Bridge remains one of the most iconic areas in London and the UK. It’s hugely popular with tourists and Londoners and offers a strong economic base for countless businesses operating in an array of sectors.
In recent years, regeneration has enhanced the appeal of London Bridge to a growing number of companies and the London Bridge Plan devised by Southwark Council is helping to create an exciting vision for the future to improve the lives of residential and business communities nearby.
Here we take a closer look at some of the new property developments near London Bridge that are planned or in development for 2022/23.
