Aragon Tower, Residential tower in Deptford, England.
Aragon Tower is a residential building with 29 floors in Deptford, rising above the Thames River. The tower contains approximately 158 apartments with two to three bedrooms distributed across the Pepys Estate.
The original building was constructed in 1962 with 26 floors as part of post-war development. It underwent comprehensive renovation in 2006 when Berkeley Homes acquired it from the local authority.
The building marks a shift in how London houses its residents, transforming public housing into private apartments that shape the neighborhood. This change reflects broader changes in the city's approach to housing over recent decades.
The location offers good transportation connections with Thames Clippers Riverboat Service at Greenland Pier and underground stations at Surrey Quays and Canada Water nearby. Note that this is a private residential building with limited public access.
Residents in the upper floors enjoy views across the Thames to Tower Bridge, the London Eye, and Canary Wharf. This riverside position offers a quiet perspective on the city despite being in a central location.
