The project involved the creation of new treatment rooms and reception areas within the existing health suite accommodation. The Practice was responsible for the design and site monitoring of the related mechanical, electrical and public health services installations. The works had to be carried out whilst the health and spa facilities were maintained in operation, representing significant technical challenges.
The mixed use development comprises two office buildings totalling 220,000ft² of high quality office accommodation together with a 289 unit residential scheme consisting of private apartments and affordable housing building.
BRIT Insurance took 5 floors of the Leadenhall building with views over Tower Bridge and the Thames. The 60,000ft² of high quality office accommodation was fitted out to Category B.
The office building is targeting Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating of A.
St James’s Market Phase 2 is the “pioneer” related to the Design for Performance initiative and NABERS UK rating.
All MEP systems within One Hanover Street are being fully replaced, with new services distributed through the upgraded risers to each office floor. The refurbished building will benefit from high-efficiency heat-recovery systems, LED lighting throughout, intelligent lighting controls, a common network system and new fan-coil units among other modern building services upgrades.
