In 2007, the Greenwich Peninsula underwent a significant transformation with the opening of The O2 Arena, a multi-purpose indoor venue that quickly became one of the world's busiest music arenas. (en.wikipedia.org) This marked a pivotal moment in the area's regeneration, which had been underway since the late 20th century. The peninsula, once dominated by industrial sites like the East Greenwich Gas Works, began evolving into a vibrant mixed-use community. (ideal-homes.gre.ac.uk) By 2014, over 1,300 new homes were under construction, including affordable housing options, reflecting the area's rapid development. (london.gov.uk) The completion of the Peninsula Gardens in 2025 added 431 new homes, further solidifying the peninsula's status as a thriving residential and cultural hub. (greenwichpeninsula.co.uk)
