About

Nine Elms sits on the south bank of the Thames in the London Borough of Wandsworth. Once an industrial stretch of river, it has been rebuilt with mixed-use blocks, office campuses and new housing clustered around the restored Battersea Power Station and the riverside walkway. The Northern line extension added a station at Nine Elms, shortening journeys to central London and supporting weekday commuting. Active construction and phased openings mean the area continues to change as new streets and public spaces come into use.

The district retains traces of its market and industrial past. New Covent Garden Market supplies flowers, fruit and vegetables from early morning stalls and consolidates the area's role in London's food distribution. Warehouse shells now hold design studios, light manufacturing and shops; riverside terraces and cycle lanes link to local streets. A pier at Battersea Power Station links to river services and offers an alternative route to the city. Market deliveries and wholesalers keep activity running before dawn, while community facilities such as a public square, primary schools and local health services serve the growing residential population.
