More London currently comprises two new public squares, 'the Scoop' (a 800 seat open-air amphitheatre), a new pedestrian route linking London Bridge Station with Tower Bridge and the River Walk, and five landmark buildings:

International law firms Norton Rose and Lawrence Graham have selected 3 and 4 More London Riverside, in each case, as their new international headquarters.

Construction commenced in November 2004 on the 245-bed hotel pre-let to the Hilton Group, the London Hilton Tower Bridge.

More London is also home to a collection of specially selected retailers including:

Marks and Spencer Simply Food
Caffè Nero
Café Amore
Bagel Street Deli
More Champagne Bar

Transport
Located within the central Zone 1 travel district, More London is a traffic-free environment with a dedicated, security-controlled underground road network providing vehicular access to visitor drop-off, goods reception areas and car parks to all buildings.

It is equidistant in time (9 minutes) from Canary Wharf and Mayfair and an 11-minute walk from the Bank of England (3 minutes by Tube).

Landscaping and public art
More than half of the estate (i.e. 6.5 acres) is public open space. More London Place and More London Riverside are two new public squares equivalent in size to Hanover Square and Parliament Square respectively.

Public Art

More London Place features a diagonal pedestrian route, animated with public art and water features, which has opened up a new landmark view of Tower Bridge.

The key components of the landscaping in the new public areas, plazas and walkways - the trees, paving, water features, lighting and seating - are designed to provide a diversity of spaces.
