Having previously launched a virtual consultation in regard to the future of a pair of 1980s office buildings at Camomile Court and 63 St Mary Axe, EC3, AXA IM have now lodged an environmental impact assessment report with the City of London Corporation.  This reveals the likely new scheme would comprise a 46 storey development of 100,000 sq ft offices and 80,000 sq ft mixed use including retail. food & beverage and an auditorium.

AXA said of the existing buildings that they were on an “important but underutilised site”  and added, “The site is also a hostile place for pedestrians, with narrow pavements, blank frontages and very little greenery”

AXA aim to create “a new landmark building delivering best in class workspace which sits harmoniously with its neighbours.
