Life on the edge: The luxury properties on the outskirts of the City
Life on the City fringes is set to get a lot more glamorous. Developers are already lining up to capitalise on postcodes in east London that are set to soar once Crossrail arrives in 2018. An area that’s sure to see the benefits is Whitechapel, whose prime addresses will sit 262ft above Aldgate East station. The penthouses at One Commercial Street, by Redrow London, have been designed in a “brise soleil” style, with vertical folding panes that deflect sunlight to naturally control the temperature of the building.
