The Newfoundland is a 220-metre (720 ft) residential
skyscraper , located between Westferry Road and Bank Street on the
Isle of Dogs ,
London .
[1]
South Quay Properties, Ltd., a subsidiary of
Canary Wharf Group , submitted a planning application to
Tower Hamlets in June 2013 for the erection of a 58-storey and linked 2-storey building for residential use, along with some retail uses and car parking at a location bounded by Park Place, Westferry Road and Heron Quay Road.
[3] Newfoundland was designed by architects Horden Cherry Lee and structural engineers
WSP Global . The building was opened for rent in May 2021.

Newfoundland is sometimes referred to as 'the diamond tower' due to its diamond-pattern steel exoskeleton that structurally supports it.
[5] The tower stands at 220 meters tall, making it the tallest build-to-rent building in the United Kingdom.
[6] It is also the first residential building ever built on the
Canary Wharf private estate, which makes it stand out among the financial center's commercial towers.
[7] Its prominent location, on the banks of the river Thames and at the end of Middle Dock,
West India Docks , is directly opposite the main exit of
Canary Wharf Jubilee line station and can be seen across the dock from there.
