NLA’s New London Awards 2021 shortlist has now been announced. The annual awards, presented in association with the Mayor of London, celebrate all scales of projects, from community-led to large-scale mixed-use developments, both built and unbuilt, that contribute to and enhance our vision for a New London: a city that is sustainable, civilised and egalitarian, that seeks to improve the quality and standards of new design.

All shortlisted projects across the 14 categories and special prizes have been carefully selected by our team of London-based Expert Assessors. Each project will be presented to our International Jury ahead of our Annual Awards Lunch on the 26 November where we will be announcing all winners, including the New Londoner of the Year, People's Choice Award and many more.

The Mayor’s Prize in 2021 will celebrate projects that provide lessons for the role that high streets can play in London’s recovery from the pandemic and its social and economic impacts. It will highlight exemplary projects and initiatives that can guide and inform the London Recovery Board’s mission objective to ‘deliver enhanced public spaces and exciting new uses for underused high street buildings in every Borough by 2025, working with London's diverse communities’. It will celebrate work that imbeds the principles set out in the Mayor’s Good Growth by Design ‘High Streets & Town Centres: Adaptive Strategies’ guidance.

The winner will be announced at our lunch on the 26 November.
