Sisal House, Heron Wharf
Lily Way, Poplar E14. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, tenth floor of one of the first-phase buildings at St William’s riverside development on the Lea. Cut and scored in house from the developer’s own film and photography — opening with an aerial approach up the river to the building.

What we produced
Photography
Eight of fifty-five frames from the shoot, six of the Riverside Club from the developer’s photography, then the building and the river
The social cut
The same film, recut for phones — and deliberately evergreen
Every film is finished twice: the 16:9 master above for the portals, YouTube and this page, and a 9:16 vertical cut for Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. The vertical cut letterboxes the full frame rather than cropping two-thirds of the picture away, and holds the building, the bedroom count and 020 3865 1500 on screen for the whole runtime.
What it does not carry is the rent or the availability date. Under the Renters’ Rights Act every tenancy is periodic, so a re-let can arrive at any time — and a cut still circulating in eighteen months with last year’s rent burned into it would be a misleading advert. Those two facts live in the caption and the description instead, where they cost nothing to change. The film survives the re-let.

Specification as recorded at the shoot
Location
Sisal House stands in the first phase of Heron Wharf, on the west bank of the River Lea in Poplar, where St William is turning the former Leven Road gasworks into a riverside neighbourhood of around 2,600 homes, with the first phase laid out around 2.5 acres of landscaped grounds, more than half of it open riverside space. Poplar was named London’s coolest place to live for 2026 by The Times. A Sainsbury’s Local trades on the estate, the riverside park runs north to Cody Dock, the community-run dock with its cafe, gardens and events, and the Leaway walking and cycling route follows the river towards the Olympic Park and south to Trinity Buoy Wharf at the mouth of the Lea. East India, Langdon Park and All Saints DLR stations are all around 15 minutes on foot in Travelcard Zone 2, Canning Town on the Jubilee line is about 18 minutes, with Canary Wharf four minutes from there, and routes 309, 115, N15 and N551 stop on Leven Road and Abbott Road. The Canary Wharf estate, the O2 and Westfield Stratford are each a few stops away.
