Cadence, King’s Cross

Prospect Place is quite the coup for the Battersea Power Station development, being the first set of residences in the UK designed by the illustrious Gehry Partners. It was worth the wait too. This pair of artful—almost carefree—towers offers luxury living in the revitalized and reborn Battersea Power Station district, where residents are spoiled for choice by the surrounding bars, restaurants, and high-end shopping. Not only do residents enjoy the cachet of living in a starchitect-created condominium that itself neighbors an architectural idol, but they get to fully appreciate the public spaces and gardens woven throughout the 42-acre neighborhood. Step out of Prospect Place, for instance, and you immediately find yourself in Prospect Park, a small oasis with curved flower beds, mature trees, and a children’s playground.
