Passionate residents and non-profit organisations such as Vauxhall One work collaboratively to improve the area and create new opportunities for both businesses and the community.You can come here for just about anything, from a juicy burger to a negroni cocktail in a vintage brasserie. Delights abound, from fringe theatres to restaurants and galleries housed within impressive Georgian or Victorian mansions. With many of the capital’s breathtaking icons just a hop and a skip across the Thames or a short bike ride away, there’s never a dull moment here. Well-connected, innovative and exciting, Keybridge is destined to become the standout landmark in the capital’s most exciting new neighbourhood.
