11-19 MONUMENT STREET
 
1 Dec 2007
 
The City of London's planning committee has approved plans for a new 10 floor office building opposite the Monument.

Designed by MAKE architects for Bellhouse Joseph and the Carlyle Group, the scheme at 11-19 Monument Street will contain 14,470 square metres of space. The vast majority of which will be offices that can easily be divided with single or multiple tenants for each floor.

A museum area about the Monument is also included in the building with its own dedicated entrance. On the roof there will be landscaped gardens, open to both the occupiers and the public, which offer one of the largest open spaces in the City of London.

The building is most notable for the complicated rippling glass frontage that will be lit up by the floodlights from the Monument.

Roger Preston & Partners provided full Mechanical & Electrical consultancy advice to MAKE together with specialist advice on Vertical Transportation, Fire Strategy and Environmental Issues.

The building is expected to achieve an 'Excellent' BREEAM rating and to improve on current Building Regulations carbon performance by at least 20%. The building also utilises aquifer source heat pumps.
