- Regenerated South Bank area across 13 acres and six separate sites, including City Hall, an amphitheatre labelled the scoop, and countless shops and restaurants.
- Boasting groundbreaking sustainability credentials, including being the first named project in the UK to receive BREEAM Outstanding and a fantastic social inclusion programme.
- Won multiple awards, including being recognised as the Best Commercial Workplace in 2004 by the British Council Offices (BCO) and City Hall receiving five awards alone.
More London was the first project in the UK to receive a BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ rating. Our innovative work on the south bank of the Thames led to a vibrant business community, awards and breaking industry records.
This high-profile development emerged over ten years during which we were responsible for construction logistics, because of the projects' difficult and prominent public location, and ensuring that optimal value was achieved over the client's six sites.
We also created a programme strategy for the whole development, which included risk analysis, logistics phasing, cash flow revenue planning and a letting strategy.
Each project pushed the boundaries, from the use of new engineering techniques to spearheading social inclusion or ground-breaking sustainability credentials. The social inclusion programme became a 'Constructing Excellence Demonstration Project', sharing best practice throughout the industry and is still held in high regard to this day.
