Graham Stirk, senior director of Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners, says of the develoment that, “The four pavilions make up a family of buildings, a series of towers of different heights. A key feature is the external bracing which provides exceptional flexibility of space - each occupant will have the freedom to reflect their individual lifestyle in their apartment or penthouse. Everyone can move through generous lobby areas and enjoy the ride and river views in the glazed external lifts.”

Initially, this development was to include 34 "affordable" units offering shared ownership, but that original agreement between the council and the developers has been shelved, according to the London SE1 Community Website, in an article posted on June 19th, 2011.  Arguing that no apartment in this development could be considered affordable, the developers instead made a contribution of  £9million to the council for the construction of affordable homes elsewhere.  The Neo-Bankside development originally involved 5 apartment buildings but now Building E is to be developed as office space.
