Rejigged 35-floor City of London tower plan approved

Developer Brookfield has gained revised planning for its 1 Leadenhall tower in the Square Mile.

The £400m tower designed by Ken Shuttleworth’s Make practice will rise to 35 floors making it slightly smaller than the Gherkin. It height has been trimmed by around 8m to 158m in height from the groundfloor.

The building at 1 Leadenhall will have 540,000 sq ft of office space, as well as 50,000 sq ft of shops and cafes on the ground, first and second floors. Also it will boast fourth floor public galley with views over Leadenhall Market.

The existing seven-storey building on the 1 Leadenhall site, known as Leadenhall Court will be demolished over a six month programme.

The 1 Leadenhall scheme will improve pedestrian routes around the site and into Leadenhall Market

 The scheme includes a free public terrace that overlooks Leadenhall Market
