Nicknamed the ‘Gotham City’ project, 40 Leadenhall Street is one of the largest buildings to have ever received planning permission in the City of London. Despite its size and complexities, issues have been rare in the skyscraper’s construction, largely accredited to the interaction of 3D platforms and workflows throughout the process.
40 Leadenhall Street stands tall at 155m, with its iconic stepped design cascading down towards the River Thames. Described as a ‘destination office’ to attract workers back into the office post-covid, it offers 820,000 sq ft of business-ready space across the 34 storeys, with retail units at street level and numerous other amenities.
