Aspectos destacados de la inversión

The site historically comprised a collection of interconnected warehouse, office and retail buildings extending between Gray’s Inn Road and Mount Pleasant, including Panther House, the central ‘Brain Yard’ building and a frontage terrace at 156–164 Gray’s Inn Road.

The site has since undergone substantial demolition and redevelopment works. The majority of the existing buildings have been removed, with elements of structural frame and basement works completed, and retained façade sections and warehouse elevations propped to allow for redevelopment. The retained fabric primarily relates to the historic warehouse façades at Panther House and selected elements along Gray’s Inn Road, preserving aspects of the site’s original character within the emerging scheme.

The site benefits from planning permission under reference number 2019/4478/P for the ‘demolition of buildings at 156-164 Gray’s Inn Road, the construction of a new mixed-use infill development comprising 15 new residential units, retail accommodation and new office space’. There has been positive pre-application engagement with senior Camden planning officers, who have expressed support for a bed-led strategy in principle.
