Former BBC HQ to be transformed into leisure haven
September 2014
Allford Hall Monaghan Morris Architects (AHMM) has released new images of its proposed masterplan for the former BBC headquarters site in the White City area of London.
Developer Stanhope has commissioned AHMM to be in charge of the redevelopment at the site, with work due to start in Q2 2015.
Following its transformation, the site will include office and studio space for the BBC, a range of entertainment and leisure facilities, a hub for creative industries and new businesses, public open spaces, a thousand new homes and a new boutique hotel.
The hotel is rumoured to be a Soho House hotel, offering at least 47 rooms, a terrace and a swimming pool.
The iconic Television Centre forecourt will now be a public, accessible space
The site as it stands is made up mainly of listed buildings, this includes the Television Centre forecourt, Studio 1 and the central Helios Plaza. These will be preserved and made accessible to the public for the first time by AHMM.
Several other architectural firms are working on the project. Duggan Morris Architects is designing the new restaurant block, and Maccreanor Lavington Architects is developing a former multi-storey car park adjacent to the site.
