RED Construction has secured a £50 million London office contract on behalf of Tellon Capital.
The real estate investment company appointed RED to deliver the £200 million GDV office development in Westminster.
Tellon previously appointed Henry Construction as the main contractor for the project in 2022 before the contractor went into administration last year.
The new offices will be at 40 Broadway, Westminster, near St James’s Park, Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament.
The office scheme promises to:
- Deliver 130,000 sq. ft GIA of ‘wellbeing-led’ office space
- Gain WELL ‘Platinum’ and BREEAM ‘Excellent’ ratings
- Complete by Q4 2025
RED’s London team will carry out the scheme, which aims to offer a variety of Grade A office space across its eight floors.
The construction team plans to erect a steel frame from the ground to eighth floor and create a natural stone façade on the Broadway elevation with projecting full-length feature windows.
The rear of the building will feature traditional brickwork and a metal clad mansard from the fifth floor to the roof, in keeping with the neighbouring Grade II listed buildings
It is also set to include a ground floor café, terraces on most floors, and a communal roof terrace.
Ian Hopkinson, executive director at RED Construction, said: “The redevelopment of 40 Broadway is a prime example of what RED Construction London does best.
“Our team is well-versed in appraising the unique construction challenges due to the capital’s heritage and scale.”
James Burchell, founder of Tellon Capital, said: “We are thrilled to be delivering a high-quality office development that sets an example for a high-performing building whilst considering the sensitive local context.
“This is a really exciting project, breathing new life into Westminster.”
