South Quay Plaza is a residential-led development under construction in Canary Wharf on the Isle of Dogs, London, England, within the borough of Tower Hamlets. It is being developed by Berkeley Group Holdings and was designed by architect Foster + Partners. The site of the development lies to the immediate north of Marsh Wall and to the immediate south of the financial district Canary Wharf. The entire development is scheduled for completion in 2028.[2]

The development includes three towers, of which the tallest, Hampton Tower,[3] reaches a height of 214.5 metres (704 ft); making it the third-tallest completed residential skyscraper in London.[4] There are also new public and retail spaces, cafés and restaurants as part of the scheme.[5]

The new development replaces three office and retail buildings on the site, which were built in the 1980s.[6] Foundation works began following the demolition of the previous buildings on the site.[7][8]

South Quay Plaza was the winner of the Best Garden/Landscaping Design award at the British Home Awards 2022.[9]
