30 years of conjuring vibrant communities within London’s most famous and forgotten postcodes. One great building at a time.
Manhattan Loft Corporation are the property pioneers who brought loft-living to London. Luring exceptional living space from former factories and derelict warehouses, we created the cutting-edge lifestyle that showed the way forward by repurposing the past. Today, MLC continue to define how 21st century London lives.
Manhattan Loft Corporation are no ordinary property developers.
Established in 1992 by Harry Handelsman, our visionary projects redefined the luxury property market by addressing the needs of individuals over investors. Always ahead of our time, MLC’s commitment and courage to do things differently has fostered close creative partnerships with the world’s top architects and designers – from Piers Gough, David Adjaye and SOM to Studio KO and SPACE Copenhagen.
Each project is an ambitious, authentic collaboration with a community and the city itself. By valuing society, legacy and beauty over margins we’ve grown from niche players to celebrated game-changers, enriching the city for decades to come.
When I launched Manhattan Loft Corporation I endeavoured to set it apart from all other property development companies, an ambition which I believe we achieved through my vision for each unique individual development.
