5 Broadgate, commercial development in London, United Kingdom

December 20, 2010 Category: Cultural, Public Buildings

The 5 Broadgate designed by Make Architects is located in London, United Kingdom . 5 Broadgate will be designed by Ken Shuttleworth at Make, replacing 3, 4 and 6 Broadgate. The building responds to the scale of the Broadgate buildings with the lower trading floors at the height of the Arena and the upper office floors at the height of the adjacent Exchange House and Bishopsgate buildings.

A new ‘gateway space’, known as Sun Street Square, with a café at the base of 3 Finsbury will be created to provide a new pedestrian crossing to Crown Place and the northern approach to Finsbury Avenue Square will be redefined with new landscaping.

Innovative environmental measures will be incorporated into the building design including generating low carbon energy with photovoltaics and solar thermal panels, reducing water consumption by rainwater harvesting and increasing biodiversity through the incorporation of green roofs and terraces. source
