new street sq - BEnnetts Assc. architects

The New Street Square project is one of the most significant developments in the City of London for some years, bearing comparison with Broadgate from the 1980s and Paternoster Square from the 1990s.

A tightly planned series of pedestrian routes integrates the new development with the lanes and courts that characterise the adjacent Fleet Street conservation area. These pedestrian routes converge on the new square, with cafes and shops animating the street scene alongside office entrances. A programme of public art and performance encompasses all the main spaces.

Jonathan ran the on site architectural design development, construction information delivery and contract administration for the tallest of the four new office buildings. Jonathan was initially responsible for the interior fit out, and structure/services coordination across all four buildings and all design teams before taking on the role as project architect for the main building.
