SimpsonHaugh and Partners has announced the construction of its new premier residential tower, called Dollar Bay, at the East India Dock overlooking Canary Wharf in London.
Named for the site’s World War Two heritage—“when dockworkers would tow American naval ships to their moorings for the cost of one dollar”—the building will provide unparalleled views of the River Thames from where it sits across from the O2 Arena.
At 109 meters tall, the building will include 121 residential apartments, retail units, a gym, and a private residents’ garden with a children’s playground. Additionally, the double skin envelope of the tower will give each apartment a one-and-a-half meter deep winter garden, which provides “amenity space without exposure to London’s often-adverse weather
conditions.”

此外,大厦的底部通过码头区提升居住和公共空间,其中包括用来提高积极生活方式的184个自行车空间。
Furthermore, the base of the tower is set to improve both residential and public space through the dock area, which will include 184 bicycle spaces in order to promote active lifestyle choices.
Upon completion, Dollar Bay will be the third and final addition to a trio of high-profile projects by SimpsonHaugh and Partners in London. The project’s projected completion date is set for 2017.
