| 1 mile (~8 minutes' walk)
|}
The closest tube station is Old Street, which is on the Northern Line, two stops from King's Cross/St Pancras.
 
At Old Street tube station, follow signs to Exit 4 (or 3 if you need a ramp), and then continue South (on City Road, heading away from the roundabout) for less than a minute on foot to get to Leonard Street and then east on Leonard Street for just over 100 meters. Development House is on the corner with Paul Street.
 
If you are arriving at Heathrow airport, then take the Piccadilly underground service to King's Cross, where you should change to Northern Line heading south to Old Street or you can take the Heathrow Link (more expensive than the underground but faster) or the Heathrow Express (even more expensive and even faster) to Paddington and then the Hammersmith and City line or the Circle line from Paddington to Moorgate.
 
From Stanstead Airport trains come to Liverpool Street station which is about 15 minutes walk from the office or you can take the 135 bus to Ravey St and walk from there.
 
From Gatwick Airport the trains run to Victoria and to London Bridge/St Pancras. Get a train to London Bridge and the Northern Line from there to Old St station.
 
In addition, there is a [http://www.tfl.gov.uk/roadusers/cycling/14808.aspx Barclays Cycle Hire] station (known locally as "Boris Bikes") just outside the building ("Leonard Circus, Shoreditch"). The service requires a credit/debit card payment of £1 for 24 hours' access (for casual users), after which you borrow a bike for up to 30 minutes at no extra cost. The office is within viable walking or cycling distance (<5 miles) of all main line railway termini and the majority of central London. For motorists, [http://en.parkopedia.co.uk/parking/ec2a_4lt/ limited car parking] is available in the vicinity of the office; note that Leonard Street is within the [[w:en:London congestion charge|congestion charge zone]]. Public transport may be a better option than driving.
