Gulf buyers eye ‘The Bay’, London's Hyde Park doorstep taking next leap in regeneration

The article discusses the ongoing regeneration of Queensway in central London, focusing on the new residential development Vabel Townhouse. This project, part of a larger revitalization effort, includes 28 homes and commercial spaces in the Bayswater neighborhood, historically known for its Victorian architecture and appeal to Middle Eastern buyers. The area has undergone significant changes due to underinvestment and shifting retail trends, with recent developments like The Whiteley and Park Modern transforming the district. The redevelopment aims to attract both local and international residents, particularly from the Gulf, who seek premium living close to Hyde Park and other amenities. Industry experts note the area's potential to mirror the pre-rise era of New York's Upper West Side, emphasizing its strategic location and evolving identity.
