JTRE London has commenced work on a £400m ($508.67m) mixed-use scheme at 220 Blackfriars Road in Southwark, London, UK. 

The mixed-use scheme will feature two towers of 21 and 15 storeys set amongst gardens and landscaping. 

This move comes following the acquisition of a long leasehold interest earlier in January to deliver the scheme in partnership with Southwark Charities. 

Demolition work has begun with specialist company Downwell Enabling, dismantling the existing Edward Edwards House building.  

The residents of this building have been relocated to the newly completed Appleby Blue almshouse, also managed by JTRE London, ensuring their living and removal expenses are covered by the charity.
