The central London project’s development partners are BSW Land and Property, and The Pickstock Group.
This scheme in East Road will offer five storeys of offices below a 17-storey Motel One 4 hotel.
As most of the superstructure is built by prefabricated modules, this project is expected to reduce environmental impact and disruption due to fewer site deliveries, minimise noise and pollution.
The project is anticipated to deliver the environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals of its stakeholders.
