We are delighted to confirm that we have appointed Skanska Construction UK Limited to build the 126,000 sq ft office development at 7 Millbank, in Westminster, London SW1.
McGee have already completed the soft strip, demolition and are currently carrying out the basement enabling works.
In keeping with the building's surroundings, the project has involved the careful dismantling of the existing building's period façade so that it can be restored and rebuilt. This exciting new development will provide high-quality, sustainable workspace with an enlarged reception, amenity space, atrium and terraces on the 6th, 7th and 8th floors to offer amenities and enhance urban greening. Ultimately creating a modern office building with high wellness standards, flexibility, and energy efficiency for its occupiers.
The company's long-term vision is to develop projects with placemaking, quality design, and exemplary sustainability standards at its heart, and this building is designed to achieve a 5* NABERS accreditation.
The development will benefit from excellent public transport access, via Westminster and St James’s Park Underground stations, while also being close to Cycle Superhighway 3 and 8.
Consultants to the scheme are Project Managers G&T, Make Architects, Waterman Structures Limited, Hilson Moran and WT Partnership.
