The area
Coal Drops Yard, Granary Square fountains and six rail lines under one roof. A fully rebuilt district that still surprises people who knew the old King's Cross.
Working for residents
- Best-connected postcode in the UK: six Underground lines plus national rail and Eurostar
- Coal Drops Yard, Waitrose flagship and canal-side food halls
- New-build stock means lifts, insulation and working boilers
Worth knowing
- Feels corporate after 9pm in parts of the estate
- Tourist footfall around the stations never really stops
