Albert Island
Albert Island takes the Royal Docks’ maritime heritage into the future with mixed- use industrial, commercial boatyard and marina – this will be the first new shipyard on the Thames for over a century. Life on the water will be central to this new development, built with sustainability at its core.
Albert Island will also be a hub for engineering, logistics and infrastructure, bringing this area of the Royal Docks into the spotlight. Located at the eastern entrance to the Royal Docks, between the Thames and Royal Albert Basin, Albert Island is close to London City Airport, major rail, river and road networks, and the regeneration of the 25-acre site will maximise the potential of these transport links.
Albert Island will also draw on its proximity to the University of East London and the London Design & Engineering University Technical College, in order to promote enterprise and building skills.
