Consort Place

Consort Place, formerly known as Alpha Square, is a mixed-use development currently under construction in the Isle of Dogs, London, England, south of the financial district Canary Wharf.

Original plans for the development were withdrawn by the developer in 2015 following a recommendation to refuse the scheme by Tower Hamlets Development Committee. Revised plans were submitted in 2015 which were rejected by Tower Hamlets Council in February 2016. The then Mayor of London Boris Johnson called in the scheme in early 2016 which gave him the authority to reject or allow the proposals. It was approved on 27 April 2016.

Consort Place is a mixed-use 80,000 sqm development project, which has a gross development value of £470 million and is planned by the Hong Kong developer, Far East Consortium (FEC). It comprises three key buildings:


 * Aspen at Consort Place: the taller east tower, standing at 65 storeys (217 m) with 495 new apartments, when completed in 2024 will be the third-tallest residential building in Canary Wharf.
 * Alta at Consort Place: the lower west tower, standing at 34 storeys (124 m), offers 139 affordable homes. All shared ownership apartments at Alta are between the 25th and 32nd floor. These homes received Highly Commended for Best Medium Development at the First Time Buyer Awards 2023.


 * Dorsett Aspen Canary Wharf Hotel: the 231-room four-star international hotel occupies 20 storeys (80 m).

Additionally, the development will feature a new public square with ancillary amenities, ground floor retail space, a health centre, and a new school. The North Pole, a 160-year-old pub, will also be restored and reopened.
