Iconic London Project 'Tops Out'
Work to redevelop an iconic building in London's famous Regent Street has reached a major milestone.
Representatives from contractor Kier London and developer The Crown Estate were on hand to celebrate the topping out of Morley House.
Morley House is a mixed-use redevelopment of a Grade II listed building. The works include a full demolition behind a retained façade on a tight footprint.
When complete, the building will consist of 44 residential flats which will be available to let alongside 11,000 sq ft of retail space on ground floor and basement levels.
Tim Davis, Development Manager, The Crown Estate said: "We are delighted to have reached this exciting milestone for Morley House, in what is a landmark year for Regent Street – its 200th anniversary. Morley House is the latest development to be delivered as part of our long-term transformation of Regent Street. We look forward to continuing to work together with our partners at Kier to bring this project to completion next year."
Morley House is scheduled to open in summer 2020.
