We are delighted to announce the launch of Sugar House Island’s latest and largest phase of commercial, Chimney Walk. The phase offers 220,000 sq ft CAT A office space and 23,000 sq ft of ground floor retail, across three prominent buildings.
Offices and retail
The buildings sit at the gateway to Sugar House Island, fronting onto the bustling Stratford High Street with the pedestrianised Chimney Walk to their south. The ground floor units will be occupied by a mix of café’s, restaurants, shops and services, activating the public realm along with a host of street food markets and seasonal outdoor events.
The offices are built with sustainability and employee well-being in mind. Each of the buildings has private and communal roof terraces for employees to use, supporting collaboration and relaxation. State-of-the-art cycle storage and repair facilities encourage green travel to work, and the contemporary changing and drying facilities make the journey in to work more comfortable than ever. Parking and electric vehicle charging points are also available.
Michael Cronin, Head of Portfolio, Vastint UK, “We are thrilled to be launching this next phase of commercial at Sugar House Island following the success of Dane’s Yard, which is now over 90% let or under offer. Chimney Walk has been developed speculatively and will deliver a host of brand-new collaborative workspaces to the east end property market. We’re excited to see what this next chapter brings for Sugar House Island and its growing community. “
History
Chimney Walk is named after the three restored industrial era chimneys that line the walkway. The chimneys date back to the late 19th century. They were dismantled during remediation works, with their bricks cleaned in order for them to be re-erected in their original place. They provide an important nod back to the Island’s industrial heritage and act as prominent wayfinding markers. Each of the chimneys are different in height, profile and silhouette.
The Three buildings named Type Building, The Ink House and Colour Works hark back to the print and ink industries which once operated here at Sugar House Island.
