About the square
Grosvenor Square is 2.5 hectares of public green space in Mayfair surrounded by 18th century townhouses, it is owned and managed on a not-for-profit basis by Grosvenor. The Square has been radically reimagined to demonstrate how green spaces in cities can work harder for nature, and the wellbeing of those who rely on them. The redesign features 70,000 new plants, 44 new trees, new wetlands and 80,000 new bulbs.
