We are delighted to report that the Jubilee Gardens on Houndsditch has now re-opened.


The year-long renovations have been delivered following a £680,000 investment by the

City of London Corporation to improve Jubilee Gardens, which can be found next to the

Pan Pacific Hotel. The works carried out over the past year have included re-landscaping

the gardens to create a more open, inviting, useable, green space that is visually vibrant

and environmentally resilient. New trees have been planted, along with the introduction

of new seating.


We are also pleased to update you on the progress at Finsbury Circus Gardens.


In 2010, the 2-acre Finsbury Circus Gardens were closed to help facilitate construction of

Crossrail at Liverpool Street Station. Since then, extensive work has been carried out to

the site to make it multi-functional and to improve its biodiversity value.


The £6m project to redesign the space is due to complete towards the end of Q1 2024,

when it will be re-opened to the public in time for the warmer summer months. £3.5m

was paid for by Crossrail, with the surplus being covered by the City of London Corporation. Finsbury Circus Gardens is by far the largest open space in the Square Mile

and much enjoyed by both residents and workers in Bishopsgate.
