Pre-2012 London Olympics, Stratford was, for many, just a place where the Jubilee line terminated. But the Games put this East London district well and truly on the map. Modern residential developments (with a plethora of amenities) have been multiplying here ever since. Where are the best places to live in Stratford?

The building is designed well but has been a building site for over 3 years
Halo is right by a Tesco Express and have a great selection of restaurants and bars near by at Westfield and East Village. Transport is great and there are many options to get into Central London, Heathrow, London City and Stanstead Airports. There is quite a lot of traffic noice including loud exhaust most hours of the day
Please review your development:
The building is designed well but has been a building site for over 3 years due to slow cladding workers that are not managed or challenged for their slow work performance (2 workmen doing one panel, while 4 supervise is really not good use of time). The property team are not very efficient and stuff never gets done but if you are fine with that then the building has a gym and is flats are a good size.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Cladding works taking over 3 years, building work noice, poor building security and lack of management experience to manage a 42 story building
What is the best feature of your home:
Having a gym on site and the transport links. That’s it!
