New appointment

ISG has secured a £47 million project to create high-quality commercial office and retail space at 127 Kensington High Street.

ISG will retain part of the existing structure on site, and construct two additional floors to double the current volume of office space on site.

They will also create a new elevation using an attractive pale white brick and Portland stone.

Steven McGee, managing director of ISG’s UK Construction South business, commented: “The redevelopment of 127 Kensington High Street will transform the aesthetic of the existing building and dramatically improve the street-scape at this busy intersection in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.

“This complex scheme has been meticulously planned to maximise the potential for the site, whilst reducing impact on the local community, businesses and key transport links.

“The decision to retain, reconfigure and extend, rather than demolish the existing 1970s building, has also significantly reduced the project programme and showcases the benefits of close collaboration between all project stakeholders to innovate and seek the best possible outcomes.”
