The first stage of consultation regarding the future of the site at 1 Silk Street has now gone lives, with a dedicated website available to view and two public exhibitions announced.
The website states “Lipton Rogers Development are bringing forward emerging proposals for the future of 1 Silk Street, a commercial building in the City of London, EC2. Our vision is to create a best-in-class office building that is sustainable, an excellent place to work, with new public amenities and spaces for everyone to enjoy.
As part of our early consultation programme, we will be holding two public exhibitions on:
- Tuesday 23rd July at the Roman Catholic Parish of Bunhill Row, 15 Lamb’s Passage, EC1Y 8LE from 4:00 pm – 7:00pm
- Thursday 25th July at the St Giles Cripplegate Church, Fore St, EC2Y 8DA from 4:00 pm – 7:00 pm
The website can be accessed here

The website doesn’t include the same content as presented during the public exhibitions
Can we ask to add details about the actual proposal (to see what the proposal actually looks like, especially the scale of it)
and also about what they mean by public/retail offer ?
So that people can give more specific feedback, because the website is currently very vague
Thank you for your feedback. I have passed on your comment to the BA group that is coordinating the BA/house groups’ response to the consultation over the site.
The consultants for the developer have mentioned that they need to increase the current size of the buildings at 1 Silk Street by 50% to ensure they ‘make a profit’.
Can we try and find out how much profit they intend to make?
