Having lured English National Ballet, the London Film School and several art galleries to London City Island in Canning Town, developer EcoWorld Ballymore has opted for a less highbrow attraction for summer, launching a pop-up DJ booth and cocktail bar.

With 1,600 homes, this new “mini Manhattan” sits in a loop of the River Lea where it meets the Thames near Canary Wharf.

Bars, restaurants and a deli have opened, too, alongside show homes.

Flats from £420,000. Call 020 7118 0400.
