Canary Wharf’s newest Built-To-Rent landmark delivers distinctive design, community and unforgettable experiences
Get ready to be inspired – Vertus, the residential leasing arm of Canary Wharf Group (CWG), has opened the doors to its striking new Build-to-Rent flagship building, 50-60 Charter Street. Nestled in the heart of Wood Wharf and just a stone’s throw from the vibrant Union Square and Harbord Quay Gardens, this development offers 756 meticulously designed apartments ranging from intimate 463 sq ft studios to spacious 1,397 sq ft family apartments, delivering a lifestyle in a league of its own.
Following the success of Newfoundland, 10 George Street and 8 Water Street, 50-60 Charter Street arrives on the scene with an irresistible blend of quality, convenience and a genuine sense of belonging.
Designed by the award-winning architects at GRID, 50-60 Charter Street stands apart with its subtle industrial aesthetic that lends a contemporary edge throughout. Each apartment is flooded with natural sunlight and features flowing, modern interiors that invite residents to relax, entertain or work in style, creating a welcoming environment that feels both distinctive and comfortable.
Unrivalled Amenities: Where work meets play
Step inside and discover over 14,000 sq ft of first-class amenities tailored to modern life. Residents can host memorable dinners in chic private dining rooms, brainstorm in stylish meeting pods, or unwind with friends in the games lounge or karaoke suite.
Recognising the ever-increasing demand for hybrid working and high-quality work-from-home spaces, the building boasts seven innovative meeting pods, four secluded private meeting rooms, and a collaborative co-working space—providing the ideal environment for productivity and creativity.
Fancy a workout? The cutting-edge gym and reformer Pilates studio await. When guests visit, six sumptuous guest suites ensure they always feel welcome, adding even more comfort and flexibility to everyday life.
The spectacular outdoor terrace, overlooking South Dock and Harbord Quay Gardens, is a true showstopper. Bathed in warm lighting with sweeping panoramic views, it features outdoor heaters, canopies for year-round comfort, and a dedicated barbecue area—perfect for morning coffee, evening drinks or social gatherings. The space can be easily booked via the Vertus residents’ app.
Alastair Mullens, Managing Director of Residential at Canary Wharf Group, shares his excitement:
“50-60 Charter Street is our bold response to the way Londoners live and work today. We’re not just offering beautiful homes – we’re curating a complete lifestyle experience. With breathtaking views, impeccable amenities and a thriving, welcoming community, this is rental living elevated to new heights.”
Community Spirit: Life beyond four walls
Life at Charter Street is about so much more than stunning apartments. Residents become part of Vertus+, a buzzing social programme packed with exclusive Canary Wharf offers and engaging events—from hands-on cooking masterclasses and fun language workshops to the ever-popular Wine Wednesdays. This is where neighbours become friends and every day is an opportunity for new adventures.
Vertus’ dedication to building vibrant communities and delivering world-class concierge service has not gone unnoticed, earning prestigious accolades including Best London BTR Development awards.
City energy meets riverside serenity
Step outside and the excitement continues. Wood Wharf offers a tantalising fusion of city buzz and natural calm with acclaimed restaurants like Hawksmoor, Dishoom and Kricket right on your doorstep. Explore 16.5 acres of lush green space, enjoy water-based adventures with GoBoats or open-water swimming, play padel at the premium club Padium, and take advantage of seamless connections across London via the Jubilee line, DLR, Elizabeth line and Thames Clipper. Getting around has never been easier—or more enjoyable.
