An unlikely mix of finance and fun meets at the northern borders of the Square Mile, in Shoreditch and Hoxton, where the suits spill over into some of the capital’s best bars and clubs.

The Bezier development on the Southeast corner of Old Street roundabout...is less than one minute’s walk from Old Street Tube station. It would also be a five-minute walk to your office in Clerkenwell or Moorgate, ten minutes’ walk to Barbican or Liverpool Street...The location is excellent at the weekend, too, with Columbia Road and Spitalfields market close by, along with the White Cube and the other Hoxton art galleries.

The towers [Bezier] back on to the Central Foundation Boy’s School, a trust-funded secondary school. In a deal with the developer, Tudorvale, the school sold the land in return for the building of a new sports pitch with a retractable roof.
