Description
The building's architects explain on their website that this project was a refurbishment that involved, "... Undertaking a series of complex structural changes to enact a complete transformation inside and out.  New open plan office floors have been created through the infill of existing light wells and removal of redundant staircases, increasing available floor area by almost 50%.  The cornerstone of the building - a 1950s terrazzo staircase - has been sensitively retained and restored."



The building's brochure points out that, as a result of the refurbishment, it offers a, "... new Portland stone façade to the south elevation incorporating large picture frame windows,  newly constructed top floor clad in bronze, new air conditioning, and new contemporary brickwork fronting Market Place...."
