Overview

Central House was home to London Metropolitan University's Sir John Cass Faculty of Art, Architecture and Design (the CASS) in Whitechapel, London E1.

Set over a floor area of 22,579 m2, the refurbishment will upgrade the 6-storey concrete frame building, as well as adding a further six-storey steel-structured extension above.

The 1960s facade of the former home of the Cass School of Art and Architecture for London Metropolitan University will be retained.

Burnley Wilson Fish is acting as quantity surveyor and contract administrator. Structural engineer is Robert Bird Group and services engineering is via Sweco UK Ltd. BAM’s own Services Engineering team are installing the services.

The building is just a few minutes walk from Aldgate East and Aldgate underground Stations.
