Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox building Columbus Tower was a planned high-rise development by Commercial Estates Group approved for construction on a site on the Isle of Dogs, London Borough of Tower Hamlets. The 63-storey, Шаблон:Convert AOD (Above Ordnance Datum) tower would have been located on a 0.36-hectare site at the western end of the north dock at West India Quay. At 2009 projected cost was £450M to build and reaching 237 metres in height, and projected was taller only by 2 m than One Canada Square.

Planning

The mixed-used scheme, designed by DMWR Architects LLP, included Шаблон:Convert of office space, a 192-room hotel, 74 serviced apartments, a rooftop bar and a restaurant, as well as a large health and fitness club, significant retail space and a publicly accessible Winter Garden at ground level.

Columbus Tower would have joined an existing cluster of high-rise development at Canary Wharf. Located at a high footfall transport interchange hub, the proposed tower’s location was directly above the site earmarked for the approach tunnels to the new Crossrail station at Canary Wharf.

In December 2008, a planning application was submitted to the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.[1] This application was virtually identical to application granted full consent in March 2005.[2] Tower Hamlets councillors initially rejected the second application, but Conservative Mayor of London Boris Johnson exercised new powers allowing him to intervene and take over the application, and on 7 October 2009 he granted conditional planning permission and conservation area consent for the scheme.[3]

In March 2011 Commercial Estates Group (CEG) announced that they had appointed Squire and Partners to review the proposals.[4] In November 2013 it was reported that Commercial Estates Group had sold the site to Ryan Corporation (UK) Limited for £100M and that a planning application for a new, residential building would be made.[5] It was subsequently reported that no such sale had taken place.[6] The site was subsequently sold by CEG to Chinese state-owned developer Greenland Group in September 2014 for approximately £100M.[7] A new planning application (PA/15/02675/A1) for the site with a building to be called Hertsmere House was approved by Tower Hamlets in February 2016.[8] The development name has since changed to Spire London.
