Highpoint (also 80 Newington Butts,[1] and previously referred to as 360 London) is a 142-metre, 46-storey, 458-apartment residential tower in Elephant and Castle in the London Borough of Southwark in London on the site of the London Park Hotel.[2]
It was the tallest build-to-rent development in the country at the time of construction,[3] and one of London's tallest residential buildings.
On completion in 2018, 343 one- and two-bedroom apartments were made available for rent to private tenants.[4] The building features a 24/7 gym, and a "sky lounge" on the 45th floor, with a bar, kitchen and co-working space, accessible by residents only.[5]
The building is managed by Canadian real estate manager Realstar Living under its UK brand UNCLE.[4][6] It is one of 5 properties managed by the company in London. They have another one in Manchester.[7]
Under previous plans the privately rented apartments were to be managed by Essential Living. The other 115 units are rented as affordable housing units by the Peabody Trust.
A 300-seat flexible theatre space located in the building has been leased to the Southwark Playhouse, and it opened as a venue in January 2023.[8]
The site also features a commercial unit, currently operating as a branch of a healthy-living cafe bar chain of two establishments, called Nue Ground.
