The Arc is one of the most recognisable new residential developments in Old Street, combining striking architecture with a level of resident amenity rarely found in EC1. Positioned on City Road, just five minutes from Old Street Station, the development places Shoreditch, Clerkenwell, Islington and the City all within easy reach.
The building rises 22 storeys above a distinctive red-brick podium and offers a collection of luxury apartments with panoramic London views, floor-to-ceiling windows and access to an extensive residents’ club. Amenities include a gym, yoga studio, cinema room, golf simulator, rooftop terrace and 24-hour concierge.
For renters looking to live close to London’s tech, creative and financial districts without sacrificing space or lifestyle, The Arc has quickly become one of the standout developments around Old Street.
Apartments at The Arc feature floor-to-ceiling windows, open-plan layouts and high-quality finishes throughout, with many homes benefiting from private balconies or winter gardens with London skyline views.
The design balances contemporary finishes with softer textures and warmer materials. Kitchens are fully integrated, bathrooms feature marble-effect detailing and underfloor heating, while bedrooms are designed to maximise natural light and storage.
