The transformation of Leroy House is complete and offers an additional 1,888 sqm of flexible office, workshop, and studio space for Workspace Group. The revitalised building also introduces a new ground-floor café and expanded public realm, strengthening its connection with the local community. Designed by Piercy&Company, the architecture draws inspiration from the Grade II listed St Paul’s Church across the street and the character of the Canonbury Conservation Area. The building’s form is thoughtfully integrated into its residential surroundings, featuring well-considered massing and a façade of light, warm brick that complements the white Gault brick of St Paul’s. The new café and enhanced public realm have transformed a former car park into an inviting, active frontage along Essex Road, making Leroy House an integral part of its neighbourhood. The completed project now offers versatile spaces tailored to various tenants, particularly small businesses, while enhancing the local streetscape. Our involvement on this one goes all the way back to 2014 when the initial planning application was submitted, with Caneparo Associates providing transport planning and highway design services from that point onwards to completion. A notable highlight was preparing the Section 278 highway detailed design back in January 2021 in the midst of a global pandemic, and despite all odds, we received design approval in the same year.

Unveiling London’s Ancient Past at 85 Gracechurch Street with the remarkable discovery of London’s first Roman Basilica! Dating back 2,000 years, this structure once formed the heart of Roman London - a thriving Forum and a hub of trade, governance, and social life. Now, as the site is reimagined as a dynamic mixed-use destination, it is set to reclaim its place as a vibrant centre for office workers, tourists, and shoppers.

We proudly supported Railpen's redevelopment of Eastpoint Business Park, creating a pioneering 200,000 sq. ft life sciences campus in Oxford. As transport planning consultants, we worked with a great team to develop a transport strategy focused on sustainable travel, incorporating car parking restraint, substantial cycle parking and facilities, and enhancements to local infrastructure for pedestrians, cyclists, and public transport. This development, designed by Scott Brownrigg, features three four-story laboratory buildings and a single-storey amenity space to meet the diverse needs of science and tech tenants. It includes community-focused amenities such as a state-of-the-art learning lab accessible to local students, a social hub, and green spaces open to the public. Railpen is aiming for BREEAM Outstanding, WELL, Wired and Smart Platinum ratings, as well as Cycle Score Platinum, underscoring a commitment to sustainability and community impact.
