Shard developer Irvine Sellar dies aged 82

Property legend Irvine Sellar has died aged 82.

The chairman of Sellar Group died on Sunday following a short illness.

Sellar was best know for the Shard which was completed in 2012.

He was a massive presence on the UK property scene and his son James will now become head of the group which his father founded in 1991.

A spokesperson for Irvine Sellar said: “Irvine will always be remembered for his determination ‘against all odds’ to create and develop The Shard, a building that changed London’s skyline forever.

“The property industry has lost an immense and irreplaceable character whose sheer grit and determination will leave a huge void in a sector known for big characters.”
