McLaren Construction awarded a £94m shell and core contract to refurbish Angel Square

American Property developer Tishman Speyer has awarded McLaren Construction a refurbishing contract for Angel Square located in Ilford, London. The project will revamp 132,000 sq ft office space in three linked buildings to create a single building with 293,000 sq ft GIA. In addition to 188,000 sq ft of office space, the redesign includes affordable workspace, a replacement public house and a public café. 

McLaren is contributing to the project’s sustainability by recycling materials through Protec’s Proplex closed remanufacturing scheme, using Protec Correx protection sheets and sustainably sourced steel. McLaren’s shell and core contract includes Cat A fit out of the two new floors and installation of new plumbing and services, largely relocated from the roof to the basement. McLaren starts on site in June 2023 and is due to complete in the fourth quarter of 2024.

What do we know about McLaren’s new contract?

McLaren’s regional managing director for London, Darren Gill, said: “These heavy refurbishments of existing structures are increasingly vital as a sustainable way of meeting occupier demands for modern office space with high environmental performance. They can be delivered relatively quickly, and Angel Square shows that the new building needn’t be limited by the previous layout. An intelligent design like this one can create a lot of extra space.”

Nacho O’Leary, senior director overseeing Tishman Speyer’s design & construction activities in the UK and Ireland, said: “McLaren has the experience of heavy refurbishment and of building above underground stations, which perfectly complements the rest of the project team. Together we will deliver a sustainable refurbishment, which is a top priority for the firm“.
