Discover Hackney
Hackney is an inner east London borough famous for its creative energy. Shoreditch sits on the border of the City, Dalston and Stoke Newington provide busy high streets and nightlife, and Hackney Wick and Homerton border the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. Tech, media and design companies fill the former warehouses and studios, and Here East at the Olympic Park is a campus for technology businesses. Victoria Park, London Fields and Hackney Marshes give the borough generous green space. People need to be here for work in the creative industries and the City fringe, for events at the Olympic Park and for hospital and study visits. Housing ranges from converted warehouses to period terraces. WJO Property sources fully furnished accommodation around Hackney with one point of contact from enquiry to check in.
