8 South Crescent, Canning Town is now completed. It is a transformation of the industrial unit with a new and improved facade giving the building a dynamic and unique look.
This detached Industrial logistics unit is being fully refurbished with new ventilation and VRF comfort cooling and space heating systems for the office and reception areas, complete with new LED lighting installations.
The roof has been fitted with solar PV panels. The solar PV panels will provide enough renewable electricity to offset the annual operation of all internal lighting.
The unit is located in South Crescent off Cody Road within Canning Town, approximately 3 miles east of The City, in the London Borough of Newham. The area enjoys easy access to the A13 which in turn provides a swift route to Docklands, The City, A12/A102 (Blackwall Tunnel Northern Approach) to the west and the North Circular Road (A406) and M25 to the east.
