Overview
In the Custom House and Canning Town neighbourhood we are restoring and reactivating one of the Borough’s most historic buildings as a new hub for community, culture and heritage. We are connecting neighbourhoods with better access along the River Lea and a new bridge crossing to Tower Hamlets. We are supporting the Canning Town Enterprise Hub as a place of green innovation and inclusive employment opportunities.
Alongside these neighbourhood investment initiatives, we are facilitating delivery of significant numbers of new affordable homes. Click here to find out more about the regeneration of Canning Town and Custom House estates.

There are a number of neighbourhood investment projects taking place in Custom House and Canning Town, delivering neighbourhood assets, as well as supporting healthy and safe connections. On the following pages you can find details about the projects.
