The Queensway and Leinster Gardens area, situated in the Bayswater district of West London, is undergoing a significant transformation as part of a comprehensive £3 billion regeneration initiative. This extensive project aims to revitalize the neighborhood, enhancing both its residential appeal and commercial vibrancy.

Key Developments in the Area:
The Leinster House development at the end of the road on the corner with Lancaster Gate and the development of the Averard Hotel. The transformation of the Lancaster Gate area has been particularly striking with two key developments leading the change. At the end of the road on the corner with Lancaster Gate, the Leinster House development has breathed new life into a historic property, converting a former hostel into a modern, upscale residential complex while retaining its neo-classical façade. This project not only preserves the architectural heritage of the area but also injects a fresh vibrancy into Leinster Terrace by introducing contemporary design elements and enhanced public spaces. Meanwhile, the old Averard Hotel—originally built in 1865 as two terraced houses by John Johnson and later combined into a single hotel—has been repurposed into 11 luxury apartments following its prolonged vacancy. Together, these redevelopments have transformed Leinster Terrace from a once-sleepy street into a dynamic urban corridor, where improved shops, restaurants, and community spaces now complement the restored historic buildings, fostering a renewed sense of place and community engagement.

Park Modern Residences: Located at the corner of Queensway and Bayswater Road, Park Modern is introducing 52 luxury apartments, three penthouses, and two mews houses. These residences offer modern living spaces with views overlooking Hyde Park.

The Whiteley Redevelopment: The historic Whiteleys department store is being transformed into a mixed-use complex featuring 139 apartments, a 109-room Six Senses hotel, and various retail spaces, including a cinema and gym.

Queensway Parade: Planning consent has been granted for the demolition and redevelopment of Queensway Parade, aiming to create two connected six-story buildings with new retail units, office spaces, and 32 residential homes.
28 to 34 Queensway: Approved plans for this site include the construction of 30 high-quality homes, with 25% being three-bedroom apartments, and the introduction of green roofs and communal gardens.

The regeneration efforts extend to public realm improvements, such as widening pavements, introducing Parisian-style street pavilions, and enhancing green spaces. A new pedestrian-friendly crossing is also being established to better connect the area with Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park, promoting a more walkable and aesthetically pleasing environment.

Leinster Gardens is situated within close proximity of Kensington Gardens and the exciting developments on Queensway. Local transport facilities include Bayswater, Lancaster Gate and Paddington stations.
