  • 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.

  • Guided Tour Pre-Visit Activity Ideas
    Guided tour Pre-visit activity ideas Local history/Geography/IT Have a search online for the tallest buildings in London with your class; what do they look like? Your pupils could make a list of tall buildings to bring along when you visit and see how many of them you can see from the walkway during your guided tour. Teacher note: you’ll definitely see the Shard, City Hall, the London Eye, the BT Tower, the Monument, St Paul’s Cathedral, the Gherkin (30 St. Mary Axe), the Scalpel, the Walkie Talkie (20 Fenchurch Street), the Tower of London and London Bridge. If there is time you’ll also see the view from the East Walkway towards Canary Wharf. Geography/History The River Thames has greatly contributed to the development of London. Research with your class how the River Thames has been used in the past – has its use changed? What is the River Thames used for today? Think about who uses the Thames today and see how many different ways of using the Thames you can see on the day of your visit during your guided tour. Teacher note: The Thames was originally used for transporting people and trade, as transporting by water was much cheaper than overland. Nowadays the Thames is used by boats transporting people mostly (tourists and commuters) and to a lesser extent goods using barges and tug boats. Geography/Maths/English How are you going to be traveling to and from Tower Bridge on your school trip? Set your pupils the challenge of working it out! Can you use public transport? Which buses or trains will get you from school to Tower Bridge? What time do you need to leave? If you need do any walking, are there any landmarks you’ll walk past to help you find your way? Teacher note: Access to TFL journey planner website, maps of your local area and maps of central London would be helpful with this activity.

    MEETING THE NEEDS OF A CHANGING WORLD SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2013 CONTENTS 02 Chairman and chief executive officer’s statement 04 About Canary Wharf Group plc 06 Vision and strategy 08 Our stakeholders and key issues 10 Economic development and the community 16 Environment 24 Our people 30 Working collaboratively 34 Performance summary 38 Managing sustainability 41 Independent Assurance Statement ENVIRONMENT p16 ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND THE COMMUNITY p10 WELCOME Over a quarter of a century ago, the site of Canary Wharf was largely derelict. What had once been part of Britain’s greatest docklands had lost out as shipping technology changed and many associated trades and industries moved elsewhere. But there were new opportunities ahead – for local communities and London’s business sector. At the time Canary Wharf Group (the Group) investigated regenerating the Docklands, there was unprecedented demand for large electronic trading floors and the offices and staff to support them. To help meet this new need, we designed and built Canary Wharf – a project that we hoped would also improve the local environment and create opportunities for neighbouring communities. Twenty-five years on, we continue to: • Plan, design and build sustainable new structures – and improve existing buildings – to create optimal spaces for an increasingly diverse range of tenants, occupiers, shoppers and workers • Manage the existing Estate to continually meet users’ needs efficiently and sustainably • Work with our neighbours to maximise job and business opportunities. We are expanding. Beyond Canary Wharf itself, we are building the iconic 20 Fenchurch Street in the City of London. We have also submitted plans to develop the Shell Centre in Lambeth, as well as a site immediately to the east of Canary Wharf in our home borough of Tower Hamlets.

  • High Rise Buildings in London – from 1066 up to Today
    John Harvey, IRIS Consulting, Article on Tall Buildings in London Based on a talk given to the Society of Quantity surveyors in June 2015 This article reviews the history of high rise buildings in London – from 1066 up to today. First it provides some basic facts and history about London’s tallest buildings Secondly it looks back at trends and developments affecting high rise construction over the past 100 years or so Finally it assesses what has happened in the last decade or so and looks ahead to the 250 high rise buildings that currently have been approved or are in the pipeline So first some historical perspectives starting with the Norman invasion in 1066 and the construction of the Tower of London by William the Conqueror and his successors. So this history of tall buildings in London begins with the completion of the White Tower, a part of the Tower of London, in 1098. For over a hundred years between 1098 and 1310 the White Tower in the Tower of London was London’s tallest structure. It was 90 feet high or 27 metres (of course in those days the French were not using metres!) The White Tower’s claim to be the tallest building only fell when the old St Paul’s Cathedral was built and completed. Although there is some debate and no absolutely authentic measurement records there are reports that the spire of the old St Paul’s was 493 feet high (160 metres). That spire was destroyed by lightning in 1561 100 years before the Great Fire of London.
