8 Water Street offers a different side of Canary Wharf living. Rather than soaring above the skyline, this lower-rise waterside residence sits alongside boardwalks, floating pavilions and landscaped gardens, creating a calmer setting within one of London’s most connected districts.
Developed and managed by Canary Wharf Group, 8 Water Street became Canary Wharf’s first pet-friendly residential address and remains one of its most distinctive rental buildings. Home to 174 studio, one, two and three-bedroom apartments, it remains one of the area’s most distinctive rental developments, combining contemporary interiors, lifestyle amenities and waterfront views.
Residents enjoy access to spaces designed around everyday life. Rooftop terraces, resident lounges, wellness facilities and regular events create a stronger sense of community than traditional apartment living.

Designed by award-winning architects Stanton Williams, apartments at 8 Water Street prioritise comfort, natural light and thoughtful layouts. Floor-to-ceiling windows and open-plan spaces create bright interiors, while many homes benefit from canal, garden or Canary Wharf skyline views.
Homes range from studio apartments through to larger 2 and 3 bedroom apartments and penthouses with wraparound terraces.
Apartment features include:
Unlike many high-rise developments, the building’s lower-rise design creates a closer relationship with the surrounding neighbourhood, placing landscaped gardens, waterside walkways and public spaces directly outside your home.
Amenities at 8 Water Street are designed around wellbeing, flexibility and everyday convenience. Residents also enjoy access to selected Vertus spaces at neighbouring 10 George Street.
Meanwhile, curated resident events including Wine Wednesdays, cooking classes and book clubs help residents connect naturally rather than feeling like organised add-ons.

Positioned in Wood Wharf beside South Dock, 8 Water Street offers one of Canary Wharf’s most tranquil settings. Wood Wharf feels noticeably more residential than the traditional Canary Wharf estate, with slower-paced public spaces and a stronger neighbourhood feel. Boardwalks, floating pavilions, landscaped gardens and waterside restaurants create a neighbourhood atmosphere that feels distinct from the traditional business district.
Residents are moments from over 300 shops, restaurants and bars alongside year-round events, green spaces and one of London’s largest collections of public art.
