Abstract

In 2024, Places for London Limited (Places for London), a wholly owned subsidiary of Transport for London (TfL) commenced a procurement process to appoint a joint venture property development partner and development manager to deliver a residential led development at the Limmo Peninsula site in Canning Town, East London.

The Limmo project provides an opportunity for an experienced property developer to partner in a joint venture with Places for London to deliver a sustainable, place-based design which will act as a catalyst for further regeneration of the local area.

The Limmo site comprises 5 hectares of brownfield land located entirely in the London Borough of Newham (LBN) and is one of East London's largest remaining brownfield sites with over 600m of river frontage. With direct links to the Jubilee and DLR lines, it is less than 20 minutes from central London.

The site has the potential to deliver circa 1,500 new homes, commercial spaces, open space and connectivity improvements for the wider area. It will be offered to the market on a long leasehold basis.

The opportunity reserves the ability to include additional sites as part of a wider East London Partnership. Inclusion of any additional sites will be at Places for London's sole discretion.
