Country Garden subsidiary brings £450m Calico Wharf to the market

Risland UK, a subsidiary of Chinese investor Country Garden, has appointed Knight Frank to market its £450m GDV Calico Wharf site in Poplar, E14. More than 950 homes will be delivered on the 5.9-acre site, as well as commercial floorspace and residents’ amenities. The scheme will be spread across several buildings ranging in heights of up to 23 storeys. James Barton, head of city and east land at Knight Frank, said: “As one of east London’s last remaining residential-led development projects of scale, Calico Wharf offers an outstanding riverside development opportunity with the ability to provide an exciting multi-use living sector environment.”
