First Class London Living Computer Generated Image of West Central 1
CGI is indicative only
The transformation of a landmark site in the true centre of London, Postmark is the most connected neighbourhood the world capital has ever known. Embracing two boroughs – one in west London; one in east – this nascent address is like no other. For the first time, two Zone 1 postcodes – WC1 and EC1 – are being united to create a magnetic fusion of the energetic, eclectic East and traditional, iconic West. Over six hundred bespoke apartments, plus retail and open spaces, will rise up on the flagship site of the historic Royal Mail Mount Pleasant sorting office to create a super-connected new community.

Postmark is to unfold in four phases on 6.25 acres, divided into two distinctive chapters, each identified by the individual postcode in which it lies - WC1 and EC1. Each chapter features two uniquely designed, complementary phases that come together to create an address exciting as its location. All four will be completed by 2024 creating a major mix-used development offering 681 homes, over O L D ST 20,000 sq.ft of commercial and retail space, and new open public R EE T space that covers over 50% of the site. All will enjoy the inimitable buzz of having one of Great Britain’s most important working mail centres right next door. And, of course, all of the heart of glorious London on the doorstep.

Where East
Meets West
The Postmark site is situated on Mount Pleasant, an area that’s synonymous with post and The Royal Mail, the UK’s national postal service, dating back to 1516.
The first ever social network was established in Great Britain over five centuries ago when King Henry VII established a ‘Master of the Posts’, a position which evolved into the office of the Postmaster General. It wasn’t until 1635 that the postal service was made available to the public, with postage cost being paid by the recipient. Fast-forward to the 20th century, and Royal Mail opened its Mount Pleasant sorting office, a flagship site for the British institution. The then epicentre of the country’s communications network – carrying an estimated four million letters a day – the site was heavily bombed during the Second World War. Miraculously, the sorting office itself was unharmed and Britain continued to successfully communicate with her allies. For 76 years, between 1927 and 2003, a miniature driverless underground railway carried the nation’s post to and from major railway stations and other sorting offices. Though the Mail Rail is no longer in action, the tunnels are still there, running 70 feet under the streets. They can be seen, along with
Industrious Heritage
the original station platforms, at the neighbouring Postal Museum. Together with the iconic sorting office, which remains in use 24 hours a day as the mail centre of the EC, N, W1 and WC postcode areas, the museum quietly imbues the neighbourhood with a reassuring sense of history.

More than anywhere else in the world, you never know what you’re going to see in London; immaculate top-to-toe tailoring gracing a stranger stepping into a cab; a shock of rainbow-coloured hair and vintage pieces on a smiling face serving you in a cool café; an effortless high-street look on a group of friends passing by on the pavement. Walk west to try out the flagship stores of brilliant British designers such as Alexander McQueen, Chloé, and Dover Street Market, or wander east to the home of House of Hackney, Goodhood, and an abundance of independent contemporary creatives and craftspeople offering limited edition fashion, art, jewellery, homewares, furniture and virtually anything you may wish to own. Who else but Postmark residents can truthfully call the beautiful, world-famous bricks and mortar boutiques of both WC1 and EC1 their local stores?

Going out in London can mean so many things – a magnificent meal in a Michelin-starred restaurant; an uplifting night of laughter, suspense and tears at the theatre; being mesmerised by the latest Royal Ballet performance; discovering your favourites on a curated cocktails menu in sleek hotel bars; show-stopping snacks in a secret rooftop bar where you can really relax. Whatever you feel inspired to do, you’ll find it here – done with fearless flair and passion. Musical and theatre lovers, just walk west or south for world-class theatres and their sell-out productions. Head north for jazz and comedy in quintessentially quirky Camden; east for the hip hotels, cool bars and eclectic eateries of Shoreditch. And when you just want to watch a film, stay home. Postmark will have its own private cinema, reserved for the sole pleasure of residents. With new restaurants, bars and pop-up events opening virtually every week across town – and classic hidden gems as yet unexplored – there’s always somewhere new, impressive and exciting to try.

London is a heartland of academic excellence. Its first-class, highly international institutions consistently attract the best minds and the most talented individuals from all over the earth.
Among its greatest former students stand peace activist Nelson Mandela, environmentalist David Attenborough, founder of modern nursing Florence Nightingale, 35th US President John F Kennedy, and modernist novelist Virginia Woolf. Close to Postmark are many of very best colleges and universities in the world, not least two Royal Academies, London School of Economics, SOAS, Central Saint Martin’s, and the London College of Fashion, to name a few. Parents or parents-to-be seeking the best education for their children also have a spectacular set of local options: top primary, preparatory, international and high schools are all within walking distance or just a short drive away. 39
