McGee has already carried out asbestos removal, demolition and enabling works at the former home of the Royal Horse Artillery which will be transformed into a high-quality residential development providing 120 private and 59 affordable homes

The specialist will now deliver the next phase of piling, excavation, reinforced concrete, and installation of bearings on the five-acre basement. Work to retain the Grade II listed Riding School is also being carried out as part of the scheme.

Gareth Stow, Chief Operating Officer for St John’s Wood Square Limited, said: “We selected McGee after a competitive process based on their team, technical response to a complex build, attention to detail and strong track record.

“We are looking forward to working on the next stage of the project with McGees, following their successful demolition works, to deliver a significant basement contract.”

Seb Fossey, Managing Director of McGee, said: “The whole McGee team are incredibly proud and excited to have been appointed to deliver the next phase of this major super-prime scheme, building on the relationship and trust earned with the client team.

“Throughout the demolition and enabling works, we’ve shown our passion and ability to deliver on our commitments. We look forward to continuing this collaborative approach throughout the rest of this prestigious project.”
