Stratford voted the area in London most likely to improve by 2020

Stratford and Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park has been voted the area in London likely to improve most by 2020, according to a new poll of over 1,000 Londoners by YouGov and Lendlease.

More than one in five (21%) London adults chose Stratford and Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, twice as much as any other area in the capital and ahead of prominent redevelopment districts including Croydon (9%), the City (9%), Tottenham (6%), Canary Wharf (4%) and Wembley (4%). 

The research follows the recent combined investment of more than £615m in the first phase of The International Quarter by Legal & General and Deutsche Bank Asset Management, through their respective purchases of the new Transport for London (TfL) building and the Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) new headquarters. Both buildings are now under construction and the investments demonstrate the confidence the business community has in the future of Stratford, which is set to become London’s fourth largest business district.

Ian Crockford, project director of the International Quarter at Lendlease, said: “Stratford won over the hearts of Londoners in 2012, and now nearly four years on we’re seeing that legacy continue. TfL’s recent rezoning of Stratford, Stratford International, and Stratford High Street stations as Zones 2/3 will also save local residents and workers hundreds of pounds a year.”
