New London Architecture

Central Cross

Built

Our reworking of Central Cross demonstrates that a few well-placed interventions can make a dramatic difference to the identity of a mixed urban block.

Our work at Central Cross dramatically improves the ground-level retail frontage of an existing building by infilling a previously dark and cluttered colonnade. We felt that well-designed, contemporary shopfronts would contribute to the improved character and appearance of the building and to the conservation area as a whole. The scheme makes a significant contribution to improving an area of public realm within central London by enlivening Newport Place and improving the entrance experience at the eastern end of Chinatown.
