Linkcity, the development arm of Bouygues UK, has been appointed the preferred development partner for the ‘Triangle’ site on the St Thomas’ campus at Evelina London Children’s Hospital
Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust chose Linkcity to deliver the Triangle site on the St Thomas’ campus.
The project will see the delivery of an innovative new generic shell and core building that enables fit-out flexibility for healthcare and potentially co-located complementary research and teaching facilities.
The Triangle development will provide increased capacity for the existing Evelina London Children’s Hospital (ELCH).
The new hospital will offer much-needed facilities, including surgical theatres and imaging suites, for children and young people from across south London and south east England.
The scheme will create significant opportunities for the advancement of innovation in treatments and technologies as part of the Trust’s long-term vision.
The new facilities will create employment for residents in the London Borough of Lambeth.
The ambitious proposals for landscaping will improve the public realm on this part of the Lambeth Palace Road.
Innovative development
Linkcity’s managing director, Nicolas Guérin, said: “Linkcity is delighted to be working with the Trust to bring forward this iconic and innovative development to the St Thomas’ campus.
“The Trust’s adaptable estate and procurement strategies are game-changers in the way the industry provides healthcare real estate and we are proud to be a part of this forward-looking partnership.
“The Triangle project will continue to cement the Trust’s reputation as a global leader in children’s healthcare, as well as improve the health and wellbeing of families in Lambeth and beyond.”
Linkcity designed the project with architects Hawkins Brown, engineers Aecom and Ramboll and planning consultants Montagu Evans.
The Trust was advised on design by architects NBBJ, engineers Mott MacDonald and planning consultants G L Hearn.
