Much of what we do as an industry is concealed from view – either behind hoarding or within in the confines of buildings. We love that everyone – from clients, to end-users, project team members, and oftentimes passersby and the public – gets to enjoy the finished result, but it’s the journey to get there that we relish at Storey.
We’d like to take you behind the scenes of our project at 188 City Road, originally built as the head office of The Lipton Tea Company, with the recent completion of demolition works onsite. The three upper levels of the building have now been removed, along with the existing core, with space made way for the new relocated core which will allow for expansive open-plan floor plates.
We look forward to the commencement of steelwork installation just before Christmas and completion of the project, a Net Zero carbon in operation office redevelopment, in 2025.
