Willmott Dixon wins London City and Guilds development

30 Apr 12 Willmott Dixon has been chosen by City & Guilds to create a new office in Giltspur Street, Clerkenwell.

The project will see Willmott Dixon demolish a six storey building behind a retained façade at 5-7 Giltspur Street to keep the building’s character while providing 4,650 m2 of new office space behind the frontage. It will bring back to life a vacant property that was previously a mixed development comprising a public house, apartments and offices.

The City & Guilds project sees Willmott Dixon construct a steel-frame seven storey building behind the 1920’s era façade to provide modern offices with latest IT infrastructure and contemporary lay-out. It also includes fit-out to Cat A and Cat B standards, with work complete in October next year.

The company is also fitting-out new retail space over four floors for leading fashion brand McQ in Dover Street and creating a new spa for the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Knightsbridge.
