    CONTENTS 04 Introduction 08 The History 20 The Building 38 The Materials 40 The Neighbourhood 55 Floor Plans 61 The Team 66 Contact 1 The scale of a full city block With its full city block setting, Marylebone Square is a rare chance to develop a bold and beautiful building on a piece of prime, storied real estate in a district rich in culture and history. Bound by Aybrook, Moxon, Cramer and St. Vincent Streets, Marylebone Square is reintroducing a long-lost local street pattern to the area. MARYLEBONE SQUARE INTRODUCTION A Rare London Find What is it about Marylebone? Perhaps it’s the elegance of its architecture and the charm of its boutiques and eateries – or the surprising tranquillity of its tree-lined streets, a world away from the bustle of nearby Oxford Street. In the end, it might be the sense of community and leisurely pace of life that sets this neighbourhood apart. As the city buzzes with its busy schedules, Marylebone takes its time – savouring sit-down coffees in local cafés and loungy lunches in the park. It’s easy to forget you’re just a short stroll away from transport hubs, tourist attractions and all the trappings of big city life. As you find yourself “Marylebone Square idling around the shops on chic Chiltern Street, exchanging hellos with the butcher at the Ginger Pig or sunbathing in a quiet corner of Paddington Square is a collection Gardens, you quickly realise that this is a place where people actually live – of 54 high-end not just commute to, pass through, or visit for a few hours a day.

  • LEDS in Practice
    LEDS in Practice May 2016 Make roads safe by reducing greenhouse gas emissions from urban transport Benoit Lefevre PhD, Director of Energy, Climate & Finance, WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cities Katrin Eisenbeiß, Young Professional, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) Neha Yadav, Research Fellow, WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cities Angela Enriquez, Research Analyst, WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cites Key messages n The UN Decade of Action for Road Safety (2011–20) is aiming to reduce road traffic fatalities by 50% by 2020 compared with the 2010 baseline. n Low carbon transport offers a practical opportunity to safeguard citizens as they go about their daily lives, at the same time as reducing greenhouse gas emissions from urban transport systems. n Cities can prevent death and injury on their roads as the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the urban transport sector is accompanied by a significant reduction in private vehicles and improvement in infrastructure for pedestrians and cyclists. n For example: O In London, congestion charging during peak hours was imposed to reduce the number of vehicles in the city center. Since enforcing the congestion charge, traffic accidents declined by 31% between 2003 and 2006 and carbon dioxide equivalent emissions dropped 16.4%. O Within 1 year of the implementation of a bus rapid transit system in Ahmadabad, India, greenhouse gases were reduced by 35%; by the second year fatalities related to traffic accidents were reduced by 65.7%. Introduction This paper shares two case studies from cities that have taken action in the transport sector to make their roads safer and have seen the benefits in reduced road fatalities and emissions.

  • If You, Or Someone You Know, Needs a Copy of the Agenda
    Item 7 Appendix 1 Summary of Responses Received to Petitions Presented at Recent Assembly Meetings Petitions submitted on 10 September 2008 (Mayor’s Question Time) 1. Valerie Shawcross AM and Caroline Pidgeon AM received a petition with the following prayer, which was presented by Valerie Shawcross on behalf of both Members: " We the undersigned support the development and implementation of the Cross River Tram as soon as possible. We believe that the Cross River Tram is essential for: - Linking regeneration area with the employment opportunities in the Central London area. - The relief of congestion on the Northern, Victoria & Piccadilly Lines. - Easing the significant overcrowding on buses which are currently the only means of public transport on certain sections of the route. We call on the Mayor of London Boris Johnson to confirm his commitment to the Cross River Tram and to do everything in his power to ensure that it is delivered as soon as possible" The Mayor, Boris Johnson, sent a written response on 9 October 2008 saying: “I am aware that there is both support and concern for the Cross River Tram scheme. In light of the funding settlement from Government which does not include any funding to implement the scheme I am currently reviewing the scheme and have asked Transport for London to provide me with details of the transport, economic and environmental implications of the project to help me decide how best to proceed. Recently I agreed to meet a delegation of borough councils who support the scheme and listen to the arguments put forward. I thank you again for presenting me with this petition and would ask you to be patient while the overall case for the tram is reviewed.” 2.

  • Stm325 Final
    THE ST MARYLEBONE SOCIETY NEWSLETTER Summer 2019 Number 356 www.stmarylebonesociety.org Registered Charity 274082 PLACE SHAPING IN MARYLEBONE Following restructuring of the planning department at Westminster City Council (WCC) last year, John Walker stepped down as Director of Planning and a new post was created for his successor Deirdra Armsby – ‘Director of Place Shaping’. To open the debate on what this means the 2019 St Marylebone Society (SMS) planning walk with WCC Councillors, planners, conservation officers and local stakeholders will follow a route that illustrates how the SMS have ‘shaped’ Marylebo ne’s townscape over the past 70 years. Since their founding in 1948, the SMS have insisted that the ‘public realm’ (that is the space between buildings) was cared for in exactly the same way as the historic buildings, maintaining that both contribute equally to Marylebone’s distinctive character. Perhaps the most important SMS campaign was its first – that to prevent the demolition of the Nash Terraces post WW2. It is impossible to imagine Regent’s Park without these Grade 1 classical structures, which surround the open space, connect with and frame the landscape and create a place of national heritage significance. Thousands of people enjoy it, not just for its unique design and beauty, but because they feel comfortable, safe and relaxed within it. Indeed it is these buildings and the roads, railings and hedges that enclose and ‘shape’ the park. The SMS has always assumed ownership and responsibility for the public realm, a stance which som e might consider proprietorial and somewhat inappropriate. However, this attitude stems from a genuine love and respect of the place we call ‘home’ alongside an understanding that local authorities need help and may not be in a position to prioritise beauty and ‘sense of place’ within their stretched budgets.

  • Marylebone Lane Area
    DRAFT CHAPTER 5 Marylebone Lane Area At the time of its development in the second half of the eighteenth century the area south of the High Street was mostly divided between three relatively small landholdings separating the Portman and Portland estates. Largest was Conduit Field, twenty acres immediately east of the Portman estate and extending east and south to the Tyburn or Ay Brook and Oxford Street. This belonged to Sir Thomas Edward(e)s and later his son-in-law John Thomas Hope. North of that, along the west side of Marylebone Lane, were the four acres of Little Conduit Close, belonging to Jacob Hinde. Smaller still was the Lord Mayor’s Banqueting House Ground, a detached piece of the City of London Corporation’s Conduit Mead estate, bounded by the Tyburn, Oxford Street and Marylebone Lane. The Portland estate took in all the ground on the east side of Marylebone Lane, including the two island sites: one at the south end, where the parish court-house and watch-house stood, the other backing on to what is now Jason Court (John’s Court until 1895). This chapter is mainly concerned with Marylebone Lane, the streets on its east side north of Wigmore Street, and the southern extension of the High Street through the Hinde and part of the Hope–Edwardes estates, in the form of Thayer Street and Mandeville Place – excluding James Street, which is to be described together with the Hope–Edwardes estate generally in a later volume. The other streets east of Marylebone Lane – Henrietta Place and Wigmore Street – are described in Chapters 8 and 9.
