Places for London
For 160 years, Transport for London has kept London moving. It has been one of the city’s biggest innovators; an inventive creator and creative designer. Places for London, TfL’s new and financially independent property company, is its latest innovation. We are here to unlock more of the potential of TfL land, creating a greener, kinder and more connected London for everyone. As part of TfL we've been supporting over 1,500 businesses in stations and railway arches and on high streets. Now, as Places for London, we’re working to release more of the untapped opportunity in TfL’s property portfolio – whether it’s a disused plot in outer London or an empty arch in the city centre – to create more of the spaces that Londoners need to thrive. And we'll find new ways to partner with and celebrate the businesses we already support, as we move towards a greener and greater London. With 5,500+ acres, stretching across almost every borough, TfL is already one of London’s largest landowners. At Places for London, we're on a mission to help it become one of the most impactful too.
