The Newfoundland development is a 60-storey residential tower with around 636 apartments, 2 basement levels, an annex building and associated public realm. The tower is 220m in height and the slim diamond shape of the tower on plan is determined by the narrow footprint of the site. The development is a landmark residential tower at the west end of the Canary Wharf Estate and is directly above the Jubilee line tunnels. Though the building is residential, the design of the building is not usual and many considerations were taken into account from conception through to construction.
