Blackfriars is one of Tideway’s largest sites, and one of a small number located in the heart of central London.
The Blackfriars Bridge Foreshore site is located on the north bank of the River Thames to the west of the Blackfriars Road Bridge. Blackfriars is one of most important sites on the Tideway project, with its new public realm accounting for half of the total of three acres of new land reclaimed from the Thames across the programme.
The site will intercept spills into the Thames – and will be home to a beautiful new piece of public land when we're finished.
