The tenant may require their lease to be extended to 31st March 2014. www.ndcs.org.uk Planning The site is located in the London Borough of Islington, within The St Lukes Conservation Area, the Clerkenwell Action Area Plan and the London Central Activities Zone. GPAD Architects (www.gpadltd.com ref: Sam Caldwell) recently achieved two planing permissions: Option 1: Mansard extension at roof level to add an additional 1,076.4 sq ft of B1 office space. (Ref: 2013/3493/FUL) Option 2: Redevelopment of the property behind a retained facade, creating a total of 8,976sq ft NIA, an additional 2,714 sq ft, comprising an extension of an existing office building at roof level with a mansard roof and internal rearrangement of the office staircase and lift core and adjustment of the floor levels to provide additional office accommodation. (Ref: P2013/1900/FUL) Potential for Residential Use Our client has explored the potential for residential use and we believe there is a possibility of achieving a mansard extension at roof level to add an additional circa 92.9 sq m (1,000 sq ft), subject to receiving the necessary planning consents. Our clients believe that the November 2013 consent achieved above could have included four residential units, subject to agreeing an affordable housing contribution.

    1 12 FEBRUARY 2018 James Pickard Vauxhall Station Old Street Roundabout 2 Background • Old Street roundabout is a complex multiple lane roundabout, linking the A5201 Old Street and the A501 City Road. • The roundabout is located within the London Borough of Islington, however the area immediately to the east falls within the London Borough of Hackney. • The Old Street area as a whole suffers from a lack of open green space, as identified in the London Borough of Islington’s Opportunity Area Planning Framework. 3 Background • The proposed layout will contribute towards significant economic opportunities and the Gateway to ‘Tech City’ and supporting economic growth in the area. • The scheme will help deliver the Mayor’s Transport Strategy commitment of providing Healthy Streets by helping to encourage Londoners to walk, cycle and use public transport. • Our Principal Contractor, Morgan Sindall will carry out the works with close supervision from TfL. 4 Public Consultation • We consulted on the scheme in early 2015. • 87 per cent of respondents felt the proposed changes would improve conditions for pedestrians and cyclists. • 63 per cent of respondents felt the scheme would improve conditions for bus and tube passengers. • There were a wide a range of written comments, including a number of different suggestions for what use we might make of a new peninsula space that would be created. 5 Transformation 6 Proposed Scheme • Remove the existing roundabout and close the northwest arm to create a new public space. • Switch road traffic movements to two-way operation. • Improve facilities for cyclists travelling through the junction with segregated cycle lanes and safe traffic signal controlled crossings at surface level.
