Living in Canary Wharf offers a dynamic urban experience. The area boasts a plethora of upscale restaurants and trendy bars, providing diverse dining and nightlife options. Transport is highly convenient with the Jubilee Line, DLR, and upcoming Elizabeth Line ensuring swift connections across the city. The district is clean, modern, and safe, with ample green spaces and waterfront views. Shopping and amenities are abundant, making daily life easy and enjoyable. However, it can feel a bit corporate! Overall, Canary Wharf is perfect for professionals seeking a vibrant, well-connected, and upscale living environment.

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

One aspect to consider about living here that might not be evident during a viewing is the windiness of the area. Due to the high-rise buildings and proximity to the water, the wind can be quite strong, making outdoor activities less pleasant at times and potentially affecting balcony use. It's something residents often notice only after moving in.

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

Right in the middle of everything from a hospitality and transport perspective. 5 minutes from the mall and equal distance to the edge of Canary Wharf and a good old fashioned London pub.

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

Highly responsive, some minor issues on moving in day all handled quickly and professionally.

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

Minor niggle - coffee cups in lounge need to be available 100% of the time.

Feedback on Harvey Thrower of Vertus I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for all of Harvey’s help in finding the perfect rental property within Newfoundland, Canary Wharf for me. His professionalism, patience, and expertise were evident throughout the entire process, and I truly appreciate the time and effort he dedicated to ensuring that I found a place that met all of my needs. Harvey’s attention to detail and prompt responses made the process much smoother and less stressful (which was no easy task doing it whilst I was still in Australia and with a 10-hour time difference), and I genuinely felt supported every step of the way. It's rare to encounter someone so committed to delivering such excellent service, and I am so grateful for his assistance. Harvey’s commitment to his job is second to none. I will certainly recommend Vertus to anyone in need of a rental in the future. As an organisation, Vertus should be proud to have such an advocate, he is a great representative which I am sure will continue to deliver for your business. He represents the reason that I wanted to return to Newfoudland as a home for the next couple of years. Thank you Harvey!

Living in Canary Wharf is almost ideal. Great transport links, clean streets, lots of shops and restaurants. The only downside is a lack of green space which can make living there difficult for some.

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

They're difficult to deal with and often take weeks to respond to reasonable questions. They'll also very likely do nothing unless the tenants in the building start a petition. They don't care.

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

They will try to get as much money from your deposit as possible. Make sure you document everything and take all reasonable measures to do DYI touch ups before you move out. They're impossible to reason with and come back with nonsensical arguments to waste your time.

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

Convenient is the best way to describe Canary Wharf. Excellent transport links, dining options, and other amenities. But the more things they open the busier and louder it gets. And without a park or other open space there is no chance to relax. It's a place for professionals, not for a family.

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

Incredibly slow responses and often with reasonable questions outright ignored.

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

Go through the apartment with a magnifying glass and take a photo of absolutely everything as part of check-in to protect yourself and your deposit. It seems excessive and aggressive claims on deposits are part of their business strategy.
