210 Pentonville Road, Kings Cross

A 10-storey high quality office refurbishment of 82,000 sqft, with an adjacent 6-storey residential private and affordable accommodation. Planned as a landmark building in the centre of King’s Cross regeneration area.

The rooftop addition adds a distinctive profile to the scheme, extends the building and optimises the use of the site, while being sculpted to appear recessive.

Energy used by the offices will be offset, and by re-using components of the existing building, the development achieves an Excellent BREEAM rating.
