ISG has secured a £50m contract to expand and fit-out the Daily Mail’s former Art Deco office building on London’s Fleet Street.

The Northcliffe House refurbishment project will restore the office to its former glory and extend the building with two more upper floors.

ISG is targetting a BREEAM Outstanding rating for the 25,000 sq m project, which will include the addition of 9,000sq ft worth of green space including the south-facing landscaped roof terraces across levels six and seven.

The listed Art Deco elevations and the existing brick and stone Victorian façade on Tudor Street will be cleaned and repaired

A key feature of the Grade II listed building is the reconfigured internal atrium to create a sense of space in the post-pandemic office environment.

During renovation works the atrium is home to the 40m crane, reducing external disruption and improving project delivery efficiencies.

Scott Knibb, project director for Fit Out at ISG, said: “Sitting in the heart of the Fleet Street Business Development District, the refurbishment of Northcliffe House plays a pivotal role in the regeneration of this area.

“Its development will further attract other businesses to bring the former glory back to what was once recognised globally as the beating heart of the newspaper industry.”
