EAST LONDON
LIVING
Discover Merchants Walk, situated
between Canary Wharf and the
Olympic Village in thriving London E3.
Live here in these light and airy, modern
apartments and you will be perfectly placed
to enjoy a lively urban lifestyle in the peaceful
surroundings of the Limehouse Cut and the
Lea Valley.
Historically, the area around Devons Road
was industrial. From bakers to soap makers,
distillers to porcelain factories, merchants
relied on the waterways to transport their
goods and materials, and provide power
for the mills and factories.
Today, the area around Devons Road is
benefiting from extensive investment,
enhancing its popularity as an ideal place to
live, work and play. The canals now provide
a beautiful backdrop for walking, bike riding
and enjoying a unique view of London life.

couture and edgy urban trends. Or, skip the

ROMAN ROAD MARKET

discover some real bargains in the heart of the
East End. Throughout the summer Super Saturday
features special events and street performances

CHRISP STREET MARKET
MERCHANTS WALK
Originally a Victorian street market, Chrisp Street
is a bustling East End market providing a range of
convenience to specialist goods, and East End
favourites such as pie and mash. Throughout the
year the market runs specialist events including a
monthly street food market, a Victorian Christmas
Market and summer arts and crafts days.
The development includes a range of retail and work
spaces for every day convenience and community
use including shops and eateries. In addition, the
neighbouring Grade II listed public house The
Widow’s Son is undergoing renovation and will
provide a place for refreshment and gatherings such
as the traditional East End ritual, the celebration of
the Widow's Buns.

OPEN AIR
ENTER TAINMENT
Need a breath of fresh air? Merchants
Walk is close to some of London’s
best green spaces and opportunities
for bike rides, jogging, walks and
relaxing with friends.
LIMEHOUSE CUT
The oldest canal in London, dating back to
1766, the Limehouse Cut links the River Thames
to the River Lea in Bromley-by-Bow, as well as to
the Regents Canal Dock. Recent regeneration
means this is now an even better place to feed
the ducks, enjoy waterside walks or just watch
the colourful narrowboats.
VICTORIA PARK
At 86.18 hectares Victoria Park is one of London’s
most important historic parks, enjoyed by
Londoners for over 170 years as a place of healthy
recreation, sports, play and relaxation. In addition
to its green open spaces, canals, tennis courts and
sports ground, Victoria Park is famous for its openair music festivals. It even has a boating lake, and
two cafés to choose from for your morning coffee.

QUEEN ELIZABETH OLYMPIC PARK
MERCHANTS WALK
The site of the London 2012 Olympics, London’s
newest park is now coming alive as visitors explore
its unique parklands, waterways, venues and
attractions. The north of the park and Copper
Box Arena opened in 2013. The south of the park
opened in 2014, including three iconic venues,
the Stadium, the London Aquatics Centre and the
striking ArcelorMittal Orbit sculpture.
Landscaped green spaces stretch the entire
length of the development for the community

places to gather and opportunities to enjoy
café culture al fresco.

Part of the London Borough of
Tower Hamlets, Merchants Walk
is included within the Olympic
regeneration zone. As a result the
area has seen a lot of regenerative
work in recent years with still
more to follow.
Devons Road benefits from an E3 postcode,
which incorporates the surrounding districts of
Bromley-by-Bow, Old Ford, Mile End and the
Three Mills in Newham. With street markets,
high streets, parks and waterways, the area
is a fun and vibrant place to live.
The Devons Road area takes its name from
the B140 Devons Road and the Docklands Light
Railway station of the same name, serving Bow
Church to the north and Canary Wharf to the
south as part of the Stratford branch. Devons Road
DLR is conveniently located in Travelcard Zone 2.

YOUR
DEVONS ROA D
Your home at Merchants Walk has
been carefully designed to enhance
the local area and provide a new
heart for Devons Road.
Careyjones Chapmantolcher (CJCT), one of the
UK’s leading architecture and interior design
practices, has ensured that the apartments are
designed to provide modern, spacious, energy
efficient homes with ample private and communal
open spaces. This is wholly consistent with living in
an exciting urban environment, yet also providing
a retreat, a balance so important for modern life.
'As the project architect I feel proud
and privileged to have been an
integral part of the delivery of the
Merchants Walk development.
The design offers interactive public courtyards
overlooked by carefully planned apartments,
private terraces and balconies. In later phases the
commercial area surrounding Devon’s Road DLR
station will become a hub for local attractions and
the gateway to Merchants Walk. This open design
exemplifies Peabody's inclusive approach.'
Rob Davies, Associate at CJCT
Natural materials are used in the architecture
wherever possible to add character and quality
to the mix of building heights and types that form
Merchants Walk. The architecture is enhanced by
the beautifully landscaped area running the length
of the development, connecting both the buildings
and the community.
Surrounding buildings are being stitched into the
development masterplan, and the entrance to
Devons Road DLR will be enhanced and improved
to form a new and vibrant station square.

ABOUT PEABODY
Peabody was founded in 1862 by George Peabody, an American banker, diplomat
and philanthropist with a huge affection for the city of London and its less fortunate
residents. Now, 150 years later, we continue to deliver the quality of homes and
diversity of tenure that modern city living calls for today.
We have more than 27,000 homes across the capital housing 80,000 residents. We manage a range of tenures,
including shared ownership, leasehold, social housing and supported housing. We also supply keyworker
accommodation and commercial units.
Peabody is committed to delivering homes that meet people’s needs and are suitable for the changing
circumstances of life. And by designing and building beautiful homes, we believe Peabody is a potent force
in urban regeneration.
London has been our home for over 150 years. Make it yours.
