Canary wharf is an amazing area to live in. Loads of bars and resturants, also all the shopping and nightlife you could want. It should also be mentioned it's super safe and clean.

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

Isle of Dogs and Canary Wharf offer a lot of excellent local shops, restaurants and services. We have a parking space in the building, traffic noise is minimal for us as we live on the 26th floor. We do hear the DLR if the windows are open, but we enjoy that aspect of living in a city. People in the area are hard to get to know as everyone rushes about and avoid eye contact, but that seems typical in a large city environment.

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

Quick to respond, friendly, and helpful. It is a great peace of mind to know any issues that arise in your apartment will be dealt with expeditiously and with care and concern for your satisfaction. Great customer service!

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

We would like to get to know more of the other residents in the building. Management does sponsor various monthly events, often there are limited spaces and they happen irregularly. It might be nice if there was a consistant gathering that residents could attend to socialize and meet each other. Some other buildings offer a Wine Wednesday or a Coffee Corner where residents can gather. Developing community can increase renewals and longevity of tenants.
