6 billion-dollar projects that will transform London by 2025

In the coming years, London's Nine Elms neighborhood will look much different than it does today.

Once the site of a farm, shipyard, and railway, the 500-acre waterfront area started redeveloping in the early 2000s - adding thousands of new housing units, public plazas, restaurants, and shops. By 2025, the 8 million-square-foot Battersea Power Station development in Nine Elms will consist of hotels, offices, two subway stations, and thousands of housing units. Another 15-acre development in the area, called Embassy Gardens, will add 1,982 new homes alongside more shops, restaurants, office space, a 100-bed hotel, a health center, and playgrounds by 2019.

The redevelopment of Nine Elms is not the only megaproject set to transform London.

Here is a look at some of the biggest projects to come.
