Description
The Northcliffe is a Grade II listed building on Tudor Street in the City of London and the former headquarters and print works of the Daily Mail newspaper. Situated near Fleet Street, JRA has re-positioned the building to accommodate prospective tenants from the insurance, legal, fin-tech, social media and technology sectors.
Originally built in the 1920s and redeveloped in 2001, JRA’s proposals have preserved the original Daily Mail facades and extended the office space on the upper three floors. The design also relocates the main entrance and reconfigures the atrium to provide amenity space including break out areas and a café.
200,000 sq ft of office space has been retrofitted with a focus on sustainability and the design concept, as elsewhere, makes reference to The Northcliffe’s post-industrial heritage. Three new landscaped roof terraces have been created on the upper levels to provide extensive external landscaped amenity space for future office tenants.
BREEAM Outstanding has been achieved in the design stage and the practice’s sustainable approach has been informed by a Life Cycle Assessment commissioned by the client. Completion was achieved in March 2023.
