Mace has been appointed by Helical plc with their JV partners, Ashby Capital, as its construction partner to build 33 Charterhouse Street, a new office development in Farringdon. Located adjacent to Farringdon Station, opposite the future Museum of London, the 200,000ft² scheme will provide over 10 floors of technology-enhanced office space, including three terraces and extensive views across central London. Set to become one of Farringdon’s first smart buildings, the scheme will feature an integrated digital platform that will improve the building’s operational efficiency and support the workspace wellbeing experience for its occupiers, through an employee engagement app. Leading the way in sustainability, the design of 33 Charterhouse Street was awarded the UK’s first BREEAM 2018 new construction rating of ‘Outstanding’.
Gareth Lewis, CEO for Construction at Mace, said: “We are excited to take on the delivery of 33 Charterhouse Street for Helical plc. The project marks the continuation of our collaborative working relationship, and we are delighted to be the contractor of choice. The scheme’s challenges play to our strengths and Mace is committed to delivering an exceptional office space at 33 Charterhouse Street.”
Ged Simmonds, MD Commercial Offices and Residential at Mace, said: “We’re proud to work on such an ambitious project, which will raise the standard for sustainable office developments. The BREEAM outstanding recognition is a result of the strong commitment from everyone involved and we will continue to drive carbon reductions during delivery.”
Pavlos Clifton, Senior Development Executive, Helical plc, said: “We are delighted to work with Mace on our third project to deliver 33 Charterhouse Street. The team’s experience and track record in building smart, sustainable developments is aligned with Helical’s own commitment to service excellence, sustainability and driving innovation.”
