The proposed development is a high-quality retrofit mixed-use scheme that has been submitted in March following a collaborative and extensive pre-application process with City of London officers.
TProposals comprise a c.425-bedroom Premier Inn hotel within the tower, and part of the podium. The retention and potential upgrade of the existing Public House, introducing new retail spaces along New London Street, and incorporating a new cultural offering that will enhance the vibrancy of the area.
Sustainability is at the core of the proposal, adopting a retrofit-first approach. The design seeks to retain and extend the existing tower structure while remodelling and expanding the podium to optimize its functionality and integration within the urban fabric..
With a focus on high architectural quality, the development will introduce new façades to both the tower and podium, creating a more engaging and dynamic streetscape. These enhancements will significantly improve the pedestrian experience along New London Street, reinforcing the scheme’s commitment to thoughtful urban design and placemaking.
