Green light for next King’s Cross offices phase

Plans for the last remaining two office buildings within Zone T on the King’s Cross regeneration scheme have been granted planning.

Both mixed-use buildings are designed by Bennetts Associates and will combine office space with ground floor shops, fronting onto a new street called Canal Reach.

Buildings T2 and T3 on the northern section of the site will be named 11 and 21 Canal Reach and will rise to 12 and 10 storeys and bring an extra 500,000 sq ft of commercial space to the T Zone.

Developer Argent will reveal the construction timetable shortly with completion slated for early 2019.

The buildings’ façades forming a continuous crescent will reflect the site’s railway and industrial past, with a light bronze metallic finish.

Both buildings will feature roof top gardens

The buildings will boast be two large roof terraces,  giving visitors and office workers the chance to take in views of the nearby Gasholder Park and Regent’s Canal.

Both buildings are targeting the BREEAM standard ‘Outstanding’.
