1 Golden Lane

Castleforge Partners sought to transform 1 Golden Lane, a prominent building in the City of London, into a modern, sustainable office space. The project aimed to retain 96% of the existing structure, including the Grade II Listed Cripplegate Institute, while adding four new storeys. The challenge was to deliver a net-zero carbon development that met contemporary workplace standards without compromising the building's historical integrity.

G&T is providing Cost Management and Project Management services, ensuring the project's financial viability and timely delivery. Collaborating closely with the design team, we are facilitating the reuse of deconstructed steelwork from the original building, aligning with the project's sustainability goals. The team will also oversee the integration of high-quality amenities, double-height reception areas and landscaped public spaces designed by Chelsea Flower Show Gold Medallist Andy Sturgeon, enhancing the building's appeal and functionality.

The redevelopment of 1 Golden Lane is set to deliver approximately 120,000 sq ft of Grade A office space, designed to integrate heritage features with contemporary architecture. G&T is currently supporting the project in meeting its ambitious net-zero carbon goals while ensuring the sensitive preservation of the building’s historic character. The ongoing works highlight G&T’s capability in managing complex refurbishments that balance sustainability with respect for architectural legacy.
