2 Aldermanbury Square

Under Construction

A grade A commercial space will be developed at a prominent location at heart of City, where a 40 years old outdated building currently sits. The building is to be fully demolished except for the basement retaining walls and piles. Adjacent City Tower terrace is to be partially demolished to allow for the extended City Place House development.
It will be designed for flexibility and multi tenancies and provide 325,000 sq ft of commercial net area.
