Albion Riverside is a freehold residential development on the south bank of the River Thames in Battersea, London. It was designed by Foster and Partners and completed in 2003. [1]
Albion Riverside is located on Hester Road, between Albert Bridge and Battersea Bridge. The site is close to Chelsea and Battersea Park. [2] [3]
The building was designed by Norman Foster and Foster and Partners. The development consists of a main curved block with floor-to-ceiling glazing and two smaller pavilions arranged around a courtyard. [1] The design makes use of glass façades and open layouts to maximise river views and natural light. [4] The building was developed by Hutchison Whampoa. [3]
Albion Riverside includes apartments ranging from one-bedroom units to larger penthouses. Some apartments have private terraces or balconies. Interior features include open-plan layouts and high ceilings. [2] [4] [5]
Residents have access to a private gym, 24-hour concierge, underground parking, and landscaped communal gardens. [6] Knight Frank is listed as a marketing agent for the development. [3]
The development is part of the wider regeneration of Battersea’s riverside. [6] Albion Riverside is positioned next to the Thames Path and riverside promenade, which provides access for pedestrians along the riverfront. [2] The landscaped courtyard and gardens are designed to complement the river views and improve open space within the site. [4] Its location offers access to local parks and amenities near Chelsea and Battersea. [5]
Albion Riverside is considered a high-end residential development and remains popular with buyers seeking riverside apartments with views of the Thames and Chelsea Embankment. [2] [6]
