Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Living in Canary Wharf offers a vibrant mix of modern conveniences and urban lifestyle. The area boasts a wide range of high-quality shops, upscale restaurants, and trendy bars, catering to diverse tastes and preferences. The open spaces, including parks and waterfront areas, provide a refreshing escape from the bustling city life. Transport links are a major plus, with excellent connectivity to central London via the Underground (Jubilee Line), DLR, and upcoming Elizabeth Line, making commuting and exploring the city highly convenient. However, peak times can see overcrowding, and weekend closures for maintenance can be a nuisance. Residential life on the streets of Canary Wharf is generally of a high standard. The area is well-maintained, with regular bin collections and minimal anti-social behaviour, contributing to a safe and clean environment. However, parking can be challenging and expensive, primarily designed for short stays and residents with permits. One downside is the potential for noise, especially from traffic and ongoing construction, as the area continues to develop. This can detract from the otherwise peaceful setting, particularly in busier commercial zones. Overall, Canary Wharf is an excellent place for those seeking a dynamic urban lifestyle with the convenience of modern amenities and transport links, though it comes with some of the typical city-living like high living costs.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Massive kudos to the dynamic duo, Adriana and Amardeep, for transforming our move-out experience into something out of a dream! These stars of the building management world didn't just meet expectations; they vaulted over them with grace and professionalism. From seamless handling of referencing to the swift return of our deposit, they made every step feel like a breeze, a rare find in the maze of agency processes. Their dedication shone brightly, turning potential headaches into moments of ease. A huge thank you to this incredible team for their unparalleled support and for making our departure as joyful as our stay!

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Before moving into 30 Harbord Square, I wish I'd known about the car-free zone policy. Parking is a challenge due to no on-site facilities. For car owners, it's crucial to explore nearby parking options or adapt to alternative transport methods. Plan ahead to avoid unexpected inconveniences.

Our building management Adriana and Amardeep are communicative and friendly. They make an effort to respond to resident concerns in an efficient and informative manner. The building is well maintained and security is very present in the surrounding area. A minor point of improvement would be if window cleaning could include flats in the middle of the building. But generally, it is a safe and comfortable place to live!

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Location and amenities are good. Lots of restaurants and shops nearby and the Elizabeth line is very convenient for commuting into central London. Construction noises and air pollution at the moment are bad.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

We have not had a problem so far however, if we do need any information from the building management, they are very responsive and helpful .

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

This is a great area to live, there are lots of amenities to hand and everything you need is pretty close by - shops, bars, restaurants. It’s also nice to have access to green space in Greenwich, which is a short journey away. Otherwise, you do have to be aware that construction on new buildings is ongoing here on a daily basis, so you have to account for noise and air pollution.

Building management provide effective and good support. They're communicative and quick to respond to any concerns - really so much better than my previous experience of dealing with landlords/ other estate agents. The design of the development is definitely improving as more buildings are completed.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Convenient access to shops and gyms. Excellent transport links into central London. A negative is the lack of bus routes available.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

We haven't had any major issues with our flat, but the building management have communicated general safety checks and repairs to the building well.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I would say definitely take the time to explore more than just central London from this property - Greenwich is so close and gorgeous if you want to access more green space.

Great pool and gym, with sauna, steam room and hydrotherapy pool. Great floorplan and good materials used throughout. Comfort cooling not that effective but adequate. Clicking noise (only in days with high winds) typical of high-rise buildings, but one gets used to it after a while. Building insulation is very good, so minimum heating is required during winter. Additional storage is available for purchase, which we find very useful. While the health club is of good size, the common area is on the small side.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Lots of shops and restaurants nearby; served by the Elizabeth & Jubilee lines, and the DLR (Soho within reach in 20 mins). Yet quiet with great views.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Good aftersales support, and the concierge is always very helpful.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

The clicking noise at high winds may be an issue for some.

30 Harbord Square is a well-designed and well-managed development, with a focus on sustainability, community living, and high-quality amenities. The property management on this building is also excellent, with a focus on providing high-quality services to the residents. We are very lucky to have Adriana and Amardeep as our management team as they both responsive to the needs of the tenants and works very hard to listen and to compromise if possible.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

30 Harbord Square situated in Wood Wharf can be a great experience for those who enjoy a modern and fast-paced lifestyle. The area is well-connected with easy access to public transportation and is located near many popular attractions and amenities. There are plenty of shops, restaurants, and cafes in the area, as well as a vibrant nightlife scene. One of the highlights of living in Wood Wharf is the Canary Wharf estate, which is located nearby. This is a major business district in London, and home to many international companies, providing plenty of employment opportunities. Additionally, the area is well-suited for outdoor activities, with several parks and green spaces nearby.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Yes and in a timely manner. The time that I needed the help, both of them are very helpful and kind understanding of my situation at that time. I’m truly grateful.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

There’s a numerous of new buildings being built in the area so noice can little bit an issue in the morning but this is very minor to watch out.
