Discover how One Broadgate is shaping the Liverpool Street neighbourhood, from contemporary workplaces and destination restaurants to some of London's most sought-after residential developments.
The City of London is changing. Once known primarily as a financial district, the area surrounding Liverpool Street has evolved into a vibrant neighbourhood where business, dining, culture and residential living come together. At the centre of this transformation is One Broadgate, a landmark commercial development that reflects the changing character of the City.
With Liverpool Street Station on its doorstep, a growing collection of restaurants and lifestyle destinations, and luxury residential developments nearby, Broadgate is becoming much more than somewhere to work. It is increasingly somewhere people want to call home.
Located at 1 Broadgate, London EC2M, One Broadgate is a modern office development by British Land and GIC, designed to meet the needs of today's leading businesses. The building brings together premium Grade A office accommodation, contemporary architecture and sustainability-focused design, including BREEAM Outstanding certification. Its facilities include modern workspace, cycle storage, showers and amenities designed to support a more flexible working environment.
However, One Broadgate's appeal extends beyond the building itself.As part of the wider Broadgate estate, it sits within a neighbourhood that has undergone significant regeneration, introducing new restaurants, shopping destinations, public spaces and leisure facilities. The result is a more connected and lively part of London, where the traditional boundaries between working and living are becoming less defined.
One of the highlights of the area is Broadgate Central, a dining and retail destination connecting One Broadgate with neighbouring 100 Liverpool Street. With a mix of international restaurants, cafés, shops and leisure facilities, Broadgate Central brings energy to the neighbourhood throughout the day and into the evening. For food lovers, the surrounding streets offer an impressive selection of places to explore.

One of the greatest advantages of living near One Broadgate is the convenience of having so much of London within easy reach. Liverpool Street Station provides access to the Elizabeth Line, Central Line, Circle Line, Metropolitan Line, Hammersmith & City Line, London Overground and National Rail services. The Elizabeth Line offers direct connections towards Canary Wharf and Heathrow Airport, while nearby Moorgate, Bank and Old Street stations provide additional travel options.
For professionals based in the City, living locally can mean walking to work rather than commuting across London. Outside office hours, the neighbourhood offers a balance of modern city living and East London's cultural character. Residents can explore Spitalfields Market, enjoy restaurants around Broadgate, discover independent businesses in Shoreditch or relax in the public spaces around Exchange Square.
This combination of transport connectivity, employment opportunities and lifestyle amenities makes the area appealing to both owner-occupiers and tenants. It also places developments such as One Crown Place, Principal Tower and The Stage within an established central London residential market.
For landlords and property investors, the neighbourhood surrounding Liverpool Street offers access to a broad professional tenant market. The presence of major employers, excellent transport connections and high-quality residential developments can make well-presented apartments attractive to professionals seeking convenient central London accommodation.
However, successful property investment requires more than a desirable postcode. Rental values, tenant demand, service charges, property condition and competition from neighbouring developments all play an important role in determining performance. Understanding these factors is particularly important when letting or selling luxury apartments in buildings such as One Crown Place, Principal Tower and The Stage. Working with an estate agency familiar with the local market can help property owners make informed decisions about pricing, marketing and their next steps.
As the Broadgate and Liverpool Street neighbourhood continues to evolve, its combination of modern workplaces, destination dining, boutique hospitality and luxury residential developments makes it an exciting part of central London to explore.
