"The regeneration of the Royal Docks is the most exciting development opportunity in London and an absolute priority for us both. We are determined to make this happen and to put our joint efforts into taking quick decisions, streamlining processes and working with private sector partners to enable delivery."
Boris Johnson, Mayor of London and Sir Robin Wales, Mayor of Newham
With 122 hectares of prime waterfront land, London's Royal Docks is one of the most exciting development opportunities in the world – a place for investors who share our vision to create a new and truly spectacular business, residential and leisure destination.
We are looking for partners and investors to work with us to establish the Royal Docks as an exciting place to live and work.
There has never been a better time to invest in the Royal Docks.
The 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games has put east London in the international spotlight and is driving change at an unprecedented pace.
The Mayor of London has established the Green Enterprise District stretching across east London making the Royal Docks an ideal base for high-tech manufacturing, research and green enterprise.
The Royal Docks has also recently been awarded Enterprise Zone status by the UK Government, which will mean businesses locating to the area will benefit from substantial business rates relief over five years as well as a simplified planning approach to development within the zone.
Decades of investment in transport infrastructure, including City Airport, have made the Docks one of the best-connected destinations in Europe and the arrival of Crossrail in 2018 will provide high speed links to central London and Heathrow.
The LDA is now actively seeking a development partner for two major sites in the Royal Docks - Royal Albert Dock and Silvertown Quays.
We look forward to working with you to create a vibrant new urban quarter in East London.
