Strata SE1 is a 147-metre (482 ft), 43-storey, multi-award-winning, building at Elephant & Castle in the London Borough of Southwark with more than 1,000 residents living in its 408 flats.[2][3]
At the time of its construction, the building, designed by BFLS (formerly Hamiltons), was the tallest residential building in London[4] and the first building in the world[4][5][6][7] with its three wind turbines integral to its structure (as opposed to having them tacked on, in a retrofit).
In March 2014, an Ipsos MORI poll for New London Architecture of 500 members of the public aged 16–64 declared Strata SE1 Londoners' fifth favourite tall building, behind 30 St Mary Axe (The Gherkin), The Shard, The Leadenhall Building (The Cheesegrater) and One Canada Square (Canary Wharf).[8]
