\"\"<\/a>Soho Estates\u2019 new Ilona Rose House Development is transforming a large swathe of land between London\u2019s Charing Cross Road and Greek Street into a new creative hub.<\/p>\n

Occupying the plot previously occupied by the famous Foyle\u2019s book shop, Ilona Rose House is a new 27,800m\u00b2 mixed-use development<\/a> that will include ground floor shops and restaurants, office space on the upper eight floors including garden terraces, and a four-level basement that will house Warner Brother\u2019s European post-production studios, including a double-height 60-seat editing theatre<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Surrounding the building, a large portion of the site is dedicated to new public realm space with a new caf\u00e9 and restaurant-lined mews linking Manette Street to Greek Street. The mews will also provide an entrance to the extensive subterranean creative office and post-production space.<\/p>\n

Aiming to achieve a BREEAM<\/a> \u2018Excellent\u2019 rating, the scheme also includes redevelopment of 14 Greek Street, a Grade II listed building, which will be protected and carefully restored. Next door at 12-13 Greek Street the fa\u00e7ade<\/a> of the building is being retained<\/a> while eight affordable housing flats are constructed behind it.<\/p>\n

The main building consists of a steel-framed superstructure, which is erected<\/a> around a centrally-positioned concrete cor<\/a>e.<\/p>\n

Cellular steel beams<\/a>, used to accommodate services<\/a> within their depth, have been used throughout.<\/p>\n

Working on behalf of main contractor Sir Robert McAlpine, William Hare is fabricating<\/a>, supplying and erecting the steelwork.<\/p>\n

Sir Robert McAlpine Project Director Allan Cameron said: \u201cFrom the outset, William Hare has worked hand-in-hand with structural engineer Tier Consult to provide the most efficient solution with a key consideration given to buildability.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith a fully coordinated and integrated 3D model in place prior to any site works commencing, all key interfaces have been resolved reducing the risk of any on-site clashes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ilona Rose House development is due to complete in 2021.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
