The redevelopment of
180 Piccadilly & 50 Jermyn Street
180 Piccadilly, also known as French Railways House and 50 Jermyn Street is a redevelopment project which will transform the buildings into a new high-calibre Grade A office development, with street level retail designed by Make Architects.
Our aim is to keep you, the local community, informed of forthcoming activities and progress through regular updates on construction.
introducing
The Development
The new building will provide 66,800 sq ft of brand-new, high-quality workspaces over seven floors, with a new retail offering at street level.
The scheme will embrace the principles of sustainability and the circular economy, retaining the existing foundations and basement, reusing structural steel from the deconstruction of another GPE building, as well as delivering a biodiversity gain through new roof terraces.
focus on
Sustainability
The project aims to excel in sustainability and become an exemplar scheme, with extremely high aspirations with regard to all aspects of sustainability, including the circular economy and general re-use.
Targeting industry-leading accreditations within the scheme, including Net Zero Carbon, BREEAM, WELL, and NABERS UK, we aim for the project to be all-electric and fossil fuel-free.

Team
GPE has appointed John F Hunt as the principal contractor for the demolition, basement and central core construction.
Once demolition work is complete, Mace Group have been engaged by GPE to become the principal contractor for the main construction phase of the development, taking over the project from John F Hunt until completion.
The professional team also includes Make as Architect, M3 Consulting as employers agent, TT Alinea as cost consultant, Elliott Wood as structural engineer & sustainability consultant, Hoare Lea as services and energy consultant and Orsa as CDM-C consultants.
As the project develops, John F Hunt and Mace will employ a series of Tier 1 sub-contractors whose details are to be confirmed.
