Reynaers helps to create
panoramic views across London
Located in the heart of London, a
stone’s throw from the Square Mile in
the City of London, Royal Mint Gardens
sits between the past, the present and
the future, adjoining Tower Bridge
and the Tower of London. The new
site offers panoramic viewpoints over
the timeless Thames and London’s
iconic skyline and is situated in a
privileged position steeped in history.
This luxurious development offers the
ultimate in modern city living.

natural light. Royal Mint Gardens is
spread across three blocks, Rosemary,

due to be completed in December 2019.
