Highpoint (previously referred to as 360 London) is a 142m, 46-storey, 458-apartment residential tower under construction in Elephant and Castle in the London Borough of Southwark in London on the site of the London Park Hotel.[1] It will be the tallest built for rent development in the country.[2] On completion in 2018, 343 units will be made available for rent to private tenants by Canadian real estate manager Realstar Living under its UK brand Uncle.[3][4][5] Under previous plans the privately rented apartments were to be managed by Essential Living. The other 115 will be rented as affordable housing units by the Peabody Trust. The Southwark Playhouse is expected to open a new venue in the building.
