Al was responsible for developing this seven storey building, with two further sub floors located in the heart of the Portman Estate. It houses a mixture of modern office space and retail units. Key features include floor to ceiling glass, column free floors as well as a curved roof with outdoor terraces on the 5th and 7th floors.
The double height entrance opens on the the corner of Portman Square, whilst there is over 10,000 sq ft of retail frontage along Baker Street.
The offsite residential element of this project, 99 Baker Street, was developed in parallel by the same team and sold in 2012 to a Malaysian property fund.
