Press release 16/04/2013 13:30 CET

Today, Skanska successfully gained planning permission to develop the site at 11 to 19 Monument Street in the City of London.

11-19 Monument

Skanska acquired the site in 2012, with the intention of delivering around 85,000sqft of Grade A offices and 3,000sqft of retail space over nine floors by the end of 2015. Around 40,000sqft of the office space is set to be occupied by Skanska UK.

The site is next to the historic Monument column which commemorates the Fire of London in 1666.

The design is by Ken Shuttleworth’s Make Architects. Savills has been appointed to bring the surplus office space to the market. Nash Bond has been appointed to market the retail accommodation. Arup has been appointed as engineer and GVA is advising on planning.
