The architectural firm David Chipperfield Architects created the design for this development, with Sir Robert McAlpine serving as the primary construction company. The project replaced several older buildings: the Palace and Thistle hotels from the 1950s occupied the northern portion of the site, while the De Vere Gardens mansion block stood at the southern end.
The Candy brothers briefly acquired the property for a price of £69 million, but then sold it on it after a year and a half in 2008 to a consortium from Abu Dhabi for £320 million.
By 2015, reports indicated that two-bedroom apartments were priced from £6 million, while five-bedroom units with park views commanded up to £30 million. It remains a highly sought after living space due to its exceptional location, apartments and amenities.
