VolkerFitzpatrick has been appointed to build a new 84,000 sq ft office and retail development in London.

The project at 77 Coleman Street is being delivered for Kajima Properties and completion is on schedule by the end of next year.

Designed in collaboration with Buckley Gray Yeoman architects, the scheme will provide new, high quality office space in the heart of London. Offices will be arranged over ground and seven upper floors, as well as including 13,000 sq ft of retail and leisure space, accessed off Moorgate, and a new pedestrian link connecting Coleman Street with Moorgate will be created by extending Nun Court.

Situated in one of the most sought-after locations in London, the offices will be accessed through a generous new entrance at 77 Coleman Street, including an integrated café and shared workspace.

The development will also offer terraces on the upper floors, with impressive city views over the public realm and gardens, as well as 146 cycle spaces.

John Harcourt, Head of Kajima Properties, said: “77 Coleman Street is well placed to capitalise on the growing demand for multi-functional accommodation in well-connected London locations. Whilst 77 is located in the very heart of the City, and will appeal to traditional Square Mile occupiers, we see it as a “London” building that will attract design-conscious occupiers from across the wider city seeking amenity, flexibility and accessibility. 77 Coleman Street is a genuinely rare occupier opportunity, creating both an outstanding commercial space and an attractive new retail and social destination, right in the middle of London.”

Stuart Deverill, Managing Director, VolkerFitzpatrick, said: “We are excited to be involved in this prestigious City project and looks forward to working with Kajima Properties to deliver a high end, ‘wow factor’ building which not only complements the surrounding area, but looks to the future in terms of functionality, quality and style.“
