Only business though no? OPs point is that there are no / not enough residential high-rises being built.

No, some are residential. I know someone who just moved in to the new skyscraper by Battersea power station

The Battersea / Nine Elms area has seen development over several years from when the American embassy announced they would be moving there, new tube stops are coming too but it’s just one targetted area only and the prices are totally crazy for anyone who is an ‘employee’ of any sort. Got your own multi million dollar business going? Then it’s no problem.
