Overview

8 Bishopsgate at 150 Leadenhall Street/6-8 Bishopsgate is an office building in The City of London EC3.

The 50-storey tower designed by Wilkinson Eyre Architects was built on a site occupied by 6-8 Bishopsgate, EC2, and 150 Leadenhall Street, EC3, next to The Leadenhall building.

The floor space of the building is 87,355m2 of which 85,892m2 is office (Class B1), 445m2 retail (Class A1 or A3) and 199m2 of retail/office (Class A1, A3 or B1). There is a publicly accessible rooftop pavilion (sui generis) of 819m2 at level 50.

Amenities

The building offers 75,000 sq ft of amenity space.
- Lookout doubles as a 336-person events space
- The Think Tank is a 200-seat auditorium with meeting rooms and 2,000 sq ft breakout space for talks, screenings and other events. The seating can be raked back to create a flexible space which can be used for anything from yoga classes to private dining and events.
- The building provides 961 cycle parking spaces, which is one of London’s largest provisions at the time of completion in 2023, with 680 lockers, 54 showers, and changing rooms.
- Terrace on level 11 - 4,527 sq ft and terrace/cafe at level 26 - 7,011 sq ft.

Sustainability

Advanced measures have been taken to optimise operational efficiencies, such as implementing a closed cavity façade system with automated blinds, controlled via a rooftop sensor that tracks brightness and the sun's position. Using an automated system instead of relying on occupiers to use manual blinds reduced the building’s cooling load by 1.2MW, yielding operational energy benefits as well as reducing the upfront embodied carbon and cost of the air conditioning plant.

Installing floor-by-floor air handling plants and CO2 sensors instead of a centralised ventilation system means airflow can be adjusted according to local demand rather than a static amount per m2, giving flexibility to occupiers and empowering building management teams.
