Paddington Central is an 11 acre, mixed-use neighbourhood next to Paddington Station in London’s West End. Located approximately 15 minutes’ walk from Oxford Street, Paddington Central has excellent transport connections to Heathrow Airport and Central London, soon to be enhanced by the arrival of Crossrail in 2019.

Since acquiring Paddington Central, owners British Land have invested significantly in its buildings, outside environment and retail offering. With the wellbeing of its workers and local people in mind, the campus’ green spaces and location alongside the Grand Union Canal offer an attractive environment to spend time before, during and after the working day and throughout the weekend. 

The campus is home to a variety of interesting businesses, including global companies such as Microsoft, Kingfisher, Finastra, Vodafone and Mars. These businesses thrive alongside gyms, cafés, restaurants and bars including Pergola, West London’s largest al fresco drinking and dining destination, and floating eateries along the canal.
