Contractor has on the redevelopment of the Woolgate headquarters building in London, UK.
Being developed by investor Stanhope and the Woolgate Exchange Unit Trust, the project will transform the existing building so that it fits the requirements of a modern office.
The nine-storey property is located next to the City of London’s Planning department and will provide 320,000ft² of sustainable workspace.
This building will feature several amenities, which have been designed to promote productivity in the workplace. In addition to providing office spaces, there will be more than 20,000ft² of landscaped, private terraces included in the process.
It will include 4,000ft² of communal roof terrace space along with a new rooftop pavilion to conduct events. It will also offer a panoramic view of St Paul’s Cathedral and the iconic tower cluster of the city.
Mace was appointed as the main contractor for the project in January this year and said that it will repurpose and reuse 98% of the existing structure.
