Developer Edge, in partnership with Goldman Sachs Asset Management and their funding partners, LPPI and the London Fund, has appointed Mace as the main contractor to their flagship EDGE London Bridge scheme, which aims to become London’s most sustainable office tower.

Targeting both BREEAM Outstanding and WELL Platinum certification, the 260,000 sq ft development will offer 28 floors of state-of-the-art commercial office space, including a large shared green roof terrace to promote occupier wellbeing, as well as a new adjacent public park.

Gareth Lewis, CEO of Construct, Mace, commented: “We are proud to have been appointed as the main contractor for this pioneering project. With strong sustainability credentials, the ambition of this development goes hand in hand with our own vision and purpose. “This is a fantastic opportunity to move the dial when it comes to delivering a truly sustainable building, and we are excited to be part of this journey. Mace has a strong track record of delivery in the London Bridge Quarter and we look forward to continuing to play our part in the transformation of this vibrant area.”

Andy Jones, Managing Director for Major Projects – Construction, Mace, added: “We are honoured to work with such a visionary client to deliver what will be London’s most sustainable office tower. This builds on Mace’s previous experience of delivering pioneering Major Projects across London."

Fons van Dorst, Edge’s Executive Managing Director UK, said: “EDGE London Bridge will be a flagship scheme for the city that can set a new bar for sustainability in London offices. At Edge, we are committed to driving down the embodied carbon of our developments, with the aim of hitting absolute zero carbon by 2050 – as set out in our Roadmap. Mace’s role as contractor will be pivotal in helping us to make construction of this scheme more efficient.”

Construction is set to start in January 2023, with completion expected in Q1 2026.
