The Mayor of London Sadiq Khan has travelled to the MIPIM property conference in France in a bid to attract foreign property investment.
The investments are set out in a new Opportunity London, London Investment Prospectus, which details 20 live opportunities.
This includes the chance to build new housing and build-to-rent developments, as well as student accommodation, office buildings, logistics, urban sciences and leisure developments.
The Mayor promoted investment opportunities worth £10bn at five of London’s major transport and freight hubs.
Khan said: “London is not only the greatest city in the world but also the greatest city in the world to invest in.
“I’m attending the MIPIM property conference to bang the drum for London, seeking new investment for the capital to help us accelerate the delivery of affordable homes and unlock new infrastructure and jobs in our city.
“I’m determined to do everything I can to build more of the affordable homes Londoners desperately need.
“I am also determined to play our part in delivering the UK government’s number one mission: growth. We have recently launched our own ambitious growth plan for London and attracting new investment for major housing and transport projects will be vital to boosting productivity and improving living standards in London and across the country.
“My message to investors and developers at MIPIM is clear: now is the perfect time to invest in London and to help us deliver regeneration projects, new transport infrastructure and new affordable housing as we continue to build a better, fairer and more prosperous London for everyone.”
Khan, together with London Councils, The City of London Corporation, Borough Leaders and private sector partners, will be engaged with developers and investors.
In total, the Investment Prospectus details four development opportunities in London owned by Network Rail, the largest owner of brownfield land across the country.
This includes a major investment opportunity at Bow Goods Yard, the last parcel of land to be unlocked as part of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games legacy, with planning consent already in place for 3 million square feet of development, including logistics, warehousing/industrial, a leisure district and public realm alongside the opportunity for a data centre.
At London Liverpool Street, Britain’s busiest station, Network Rail, working with Transport for London, plans to ensure the transport hub is fit for London’s future demand, alongside creating a new landmark office and retail. Investment partners are also sought for future projects at Waterloo and Victoria.
