Developer Old Park Lane Management aims to dismantle and rebuild 7 Millbank in Westminster to create nine-storey office building with two basement levels.

The design and build of 12,100 sq m of workspace will include reconstruction of the original historic façade, which has been carefully deconstructed by demolition contractor McGee and stored before being rebuilt into the new structure to maintain and enhance the building’s historic character.

How the restored building facade will look on Dean Stanley Street

The new development will provide sustainable workspace with an enlarged reception, atrium and staircase, and terraces on the 6th, 7th and 8th floors to offer amenities and enhance urban greening.

The scheme will be targeting BREEAM Outstanding, WELL Platinum and a Nabers 5* rating.

Consultants to the scheme are project managers G&T, Make Architects, Waterman Structures, Hilson Moran and WT Partnership.

Construction is expected to be completed in January 2027.
