  • St. Margaret's in Eastcheap
    ST. MARGARET'S IN EASTCHEAP NINE HUNDRED YEARS OF HISTORY A Lecture delivered to St. Margaret's Historical Society on January 6th, 1967 by Dr. Gordon Huelin "God that suiteth in Trinity, send us peace and unity". St. Margaret's In Eastcheap : Nine hundred years of History. During the first year of his reign, 1067, William the Conqueror gave to the abbot and church of St. Peter's, Westminster, the newly-built wooden chapel of St. Margaret in Eastcheap. It was, no doubt, with this in mind that someone caused to be set up over the door of St. Margaret Pattens the words “Founded 1067”. Yet, even though it seems to me to be going too far to claim that a church of St. Margaret's has stood upon this actual site for the last nine centuries, we in this place are certainly justified in giving' thanks in 1967 for the fact that for nine hundred years the faith has been preached and worship offered to God in a church in Eastcheap dedicated to St. Margaret of Antioch. In the year immediately following the Norman Conquest much was happening as regards English church life. One wishes that more might be known of that wooden chapel in Eastcheap, However, over a century was to elapse before even a glimpse is given of the London churches-and this only in general terms. In 1174, William Fitzstephen in his description of London wrote that “It is happy in the profession of the Christian religion”. As regards divine worship Fitzstephen speaks of one hundred and thirty-six parochial churches in the City and suburbs.

  • 22 Bishopsgate London EC2N 4BQ Construction of A
    Committee: Date: Planning and Transportation 28 February 2017 Subject: Public 22 Bishopsgate London EC2N 4BQ Construction of a building arranged on three basement floors, ground and 58 upper floors plus mezzanines and plant comprising floorspace for use within Classes A and B1 of the Use Classes Order and a publicly accessible viewing gallery and facilities (sui generis); hard and soft landscaping works; the provision of ancillary servicing and other works incidental to the development. (201,449sq.m. GEA) Ward: Lime Street For Decision Registered No: 16/01150/FULEIA Registered on: 24 November 2016 Conservation Area: St Helen's Place Listed Building: No Summary The planning application relates to the site of the 62 storey tower (294.94m AOD) granted planning permission in June 2016 and which is presently being constructed. The current scheme is for a tower comprising 59 storeys at ground and above (272.32m AOD) with an amended design to the top. The tapering of the upper storeys previously approved has been omitted and replaced by a flat topped lower tower. In other respects the design of the elevations remains as before. The applicants advise that the lowering of the tower in the new proposal is in response to construction management constraints in relation to aviation safeguarding issues. The planning application also incorporates amendments to the base of the building, the public realm and to cycle space provision which were proposed in a S73 amendment application and which your Committee resolved to grant on 28 November 2016, subject to a legal agreement but not yet issued. The building would provide offices, retail at ground level, a viewing gallery with free public access at levels 55 and 56 and a public restaurant and bar at levels 57 and 58.

The objectives of the exercise is to; on a regular basis, cycle and walk through TfL and major development schemes during build and ensure where possible that the traffic management and construction management implemented does not negatively impact on vulnerable road users. pa Traffic Management Proposal UKPN planned works to connect power cables to 100 Bishopsgate. To facilitate works, a southbound diversion is to be implemented. TfL have met with UKPN to discuss all options which included maintaining a thoroughfare for southbound cyclists adjacent to the works. Due to the proposed excavation area covering the entire southbound carriageway, it is proposed that cyclists are diverted with all other traffic. The cycle patrol has been set up to actively experience the diversion routes from the cyclists’ perspective and to highlight any concerns or potential mitigation measures to improve safety. TfL and UKPN are still investigating all avenues for mitigating the need for the diversion during the latter phases of the programme.

ZSL London Zoo’s newest and most breath-taking exhibit transports visitors from the heart of London to India’s vibrant Sasan Gir, where they can get closer than ever before to mighty Asiatic lions. Shrek’s Adventure London London's newest family attraction! Step into the kingdom of Far Far Away and enjoy a brand new madcap Shrek adventure where amazing DreamWorks animation, captivating story-telling and a good dose of Donkey’s cheekiness awaits. The London Dungeon (all ages) It has all the ghastly gore and black comedy of the old Tooley Street attraction in a bigger and more high-tech package. A jokey celebration of torture, death and disease, visitors can journey back in time to London's plague-ridden streets (rotting corpses, rats, vile boils and projectile vomiting all come as standard) and meet some of the city's unsavoury characters, from Guy Fawkes to demon barber Sweeney Todd. A cast of blood- splattered actors are joined by 'virtual' guests, such as Brian Blessed as Henry VIII, and as well as the 18 different shows and 'surprises' – which could see you on the run from Jack the Ripper or getting lost in London's Victorian sewers – there are two rides to raise the adrenaline: a turbulent boat trip down the Thames towards execution, and a dark drop ride plunging three stories in the pitch black. Note that the London Dungeon is unsuitable for young or easily scared children.

    Central London Development Pipeline Q2 2017 Development Completions - As at Q2 2017, there is 9.45m sq ft of available space under construction across Central London. 1.32 million sq ft of office space completed in Q2 2017, adding 710,000 sq ft of available office space to the market. - For future 2017 development completions, 49% of the space is prelet, rising to 55% for 2018. - 10% of space has been prelet for 2019 completions, the low figure being largely the result of the commencement of 22 Bishopsgate adding 1.275m sq ft of availability to the market. - Total take-up by prelets in Q2 2017 equalled 520,000 sq ft, 17 % of total take-up in the quarter. The largest prelet of the quarter was to WeWork at Two Southbank Place, taking 280,000 sq ft. In the third largest letting of the quarter, NEX took 120,000 sq ft at London Fruit & Wool Exchange. Development Pipeline - Completion Year Oversite developments 7,000,000 at Crossrail stations are 6,000,000 projected to begin 5,000,000 construction following 4,000,000 ticket office completion.
