According to Bovis, 60 Gracechurch Street is planned to provide more than 430,000ft² of Grade A office space, alongside a public viewing gallery on the 35th floor.
The development will feature large, flexible floorplates with minimal columns and increased ceiling heights, intended to accommodate a range of interior configurations.
Each floor will offer outdoor terraces and planted balconies, while occupiers will have access to a range of amenities designed to promote workplace wellbeing.
In addition, the tower is also designed to retain, reuse or recycle as much of the existing building fabric as possible.
The project has an embodied carbon target of less than 700kgCO₂/m² and is targeting BREEAM Outstanding certification and a NABERS 5.5-star rating, Bovis said.
Sellar CEO James Sellar said: “60 Gracechurch Street will be setting new standards for the next generation of City Towers, with future occupier requirements at the heart of the design this will be one of the most sustainable towers in London, whilst outdoor terraces on every floor reflect a focus on wellbeing and community.
“The appointment of Bovis is a significant milestone for the project. It brings together a team with the experience and shared ambition to deliver a distinctive building that will contribute to the City’s evolving commercial landscape.”
Bovis began advising on pre-construction and delivery planning for the project in July 2025 alongside Sellar and its consultant team.
Following the contract award, the scheme will enter construction, with handover scheduled for the final quarter of 2029.
Bovis CEO David Cadiot said: “We are delighted to be delivering 60 Gracechurch Street for Sellar. It is particularly exciting for Bovis to return to a part of the City we know well and play a role in shaping the next generation of commercial workspace in London.”
