22 Bishopsgate Planning Approval News
The City of London has granted planning permission for revised proposals by PLP which reduces the building height by 23m, reports the Architects? Journal.
The tower is set to reign briefly as the tallest building in the City of London until Aroland Holdings’ 1 Undershaft Tower completes, which will be 290 metres high.
The 22 Bishopsgate tower, under construction by Multiplex for AXA Investment Managers Real Assets, will be 255 metres (840 feet) tall. Back on the 5th of December 2016 architects PLP submitted revised plans for their tower design at 22 Bishopsgate, reducing the skyscraper?s height by 23m.
This City office development is due to have a population of 12,000 office workers over its 59 storeys.
Otis won a contract to install 57 elevators and 10 escalators at 22 Bishopsgate, reported www.theconstructionindex.co.uk in February 2017.
Otis will install 18 of its Gen2 elevators, 13 of its SkyRise single-deck, and 26 SkyRise double-deck elevators combined with its CompassPlus destination management system.
When completed, these elevators will be Europe?s fastest SkyRise double-decks, running at 8 metres/sec (approx. 30km/hour).
