One West Point, also previously known as Portal West is a residential highrise development in North Acton, London. It consists of four towers surrounding a central courtyard with the tallest "Icon Tower" rising to 184 m (604 ft). Reaching such a height would make it, at the time of completion in November 2022, the tallest residential building in London outside of Canary Wharf.[1][2]

The development was led by City & Docklands, who had also worked in the development of the docklands, and designed by BUJ architects.[3] Construction began in 2019 with planning permission being granted in 2017 and completed in 2022.[4] It is part of a larger emergent cluster of skyscrapers and towers within the Old Oak Common and Park Royal regeneration area.[5] A significant economic boost is expected to follow the construction of the HS2 servicing Old Oak Common station nearby.[6]
