Nestlé Tower, High-rise office building in Croydon, United Kingdom
Nestlé Tower is a 24-story office building in Croydon's business district with a distinctive rectangular profile. The ground floor integrates directly with St George's Walk shopping arcade, creating a connection between the tower and street-level retail.
Ronald Ward and Partners designed this structure in 1964 to establish Croydon as a major office hub beyond central London. The building became the headquarters for Nestlé UK until the company relocated in 2012.
This tower housed Nestlé UK's main offices until 2012, marking Croydon's shift from a market town into a business hub. The building remains a visible reminder of the city's transformation into a major commercial center.
The building sits in a convenient location with easy access to public transport and pedestrian walkways near Croydon's center. Visitors can explore the ground floor and connected shopping areas without needing access to the upper office levels.
In 2017, Chinese developer R&F Properties acquired the building with plans to convert it into approximately 288 residential apartments. This transformation reflects a broader shift happening across London as office buildings find new life as homes.
