Dean Banks, Chief Executive Officer of Balfour Beatty’s UK Construction Services business, said: “No. 1 Palace Street is testament to Balfour Beatty’s ability to deliver complex schemes in confined, city-centre spaces safely, efficiently and with minimal disruption.
“Working in partnership with Northacre, Balfour Beatty is ensuring this ambitious and complex development next to Buckingham Palace is turned into a reality.”
Located in the heart of St James’s Park and due to complete in 2020, No.1 Palace Street offers a rare opportunity to live opposite The Queen.
The scheme will provide 72 state-of-the-art apartments with unrivalled views of the gardens of Buckingham Palace.
David Harman, Northacre’s Development Director comments;
“No.1 Palace Street is an exceptional proposition and we are proud to have reached this important milestone, in what has been a challenging engineering phase of the project.
“A testament to our team’s hard work pioneering Northacre’s ambitious vision to conceptualise, design and develop a world-class London landmark.”
Encompassing five different architectural styles within its substantial island site, Grade II Listed No.1 Palace Street has provided a complex and diverse project for London’s most experienced revival developers, Northacre and leading international infrastructure group, Balfour Beatty.
The project has involved a complicated façade retention and restoration of important period features alongside a four-storey sub-ground construction.
