Victoria is a truly unique neighbourhood, experiencing unprecedented new developments and rebuilds.
Book-ended by Buckingham Palace to the west and Westminster Abbey to the east, Victoria is a truly unique neighbourhood, experiencing unprecedented new developments and rebuilds.
Traditionally known for being a transport hub, discover the residential, office and retail projects that are helping to create a fresh new look for this bustling area.
At the heart of the area, our walk will explore the renovation of Cardinal Place by EPR Architects, which was the first step in making Victoria a vibrant area to live, work and socialise. Adjacent to the Cathedral Piazza, an entire retrofit of 1970’s classic Elsom Pack and Roberts’ Ashdown House (renamed 123 Victoria Street) has been refurbished by Aukett Swanke, while the landmark mixed-use development by Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects restores cinema to Victoria, side by side with quality big-name restaurant chains at ground level.
