Prior to this refurbishment being undertaken, this double fronted building, known as Central Cross, presented a tired and uninspiring face onto one of the Capital’s busiest streets. Derwent London acquired the 260,000 sq ft complex on Tottenham Court Road in 2010. The rejuvenated and re-branded 1 + 2 Stephen Street now has a distinct identity and character, and the refurbished floors set the template for the future transformation of the whole building.

The former recording studios, loading bay and basement car park have been converted into Cat A office workspace. Three new roof terraces provide the occupiers with sought-after outdoor meeting and socialising space. The much improved environment with its broad mix of office, retail and leisure will go some way to restoring Tottenham Court Road’s status as one of central London’s prime destinations.

Speakers at the event will be: Benjamin Lesser, Development Manager at Derwent London, Simon Whittaker, Associate at Orms Architects, Jonathan Ward & Richard Morgan, Engineers at Arup and Charlie Green, Co CEO at The Office Group.
