SMITHFIELD MARKET REGENERATION The project forms part of the ‘Destination City’ vision, designed to establish the Square Mile as a world-class destination for business, culture, and leisure. The redevelopment centres around the integration of the new London Museum, set to open in phases starting with the General Market in 2026 and the Grade II-listed Poultry Market in 2028. These iconic spaces will house the Museum’s permanent exhibitions, temporary galleries, and public programming, drawing over 2 million visitors annually. The Museum’s opening will be complemented by an aspirational new public realm, creating vibrant streetscapes and communal spaces that blend historical charm with modern functionality. Alongside the Museum, a series of Museum Houses will activate the streetscape, hosting independent retailers, creative offices, and food and beverage outlets. This activity is expected to inject £565 million in economic value within 10 years of opening, reinforcing Smithfield as a cornerstone of London’s cultural and commercial vibrancy. The Smithfield Market regeneration will significantly benefit 18-19 Long Lane, situated at the heart of this revitalised district. Its close proximity to the Museum, General Market, and new public realm ensures increased footfall and visibility for the property, while the enhanced cultural and commercial activity will further elevate its appeal to occupiers and investors, making it an outstanding opportunity for those seeking to capitalise on the area’s transformation.
