Rocket Property has got the planning green light for a 27-storey office tower on the northern fringe of the City of London.

Designed by architect AHMM, the Shoreditch High Street project will involve 125m main tower with a part 8-storey and part 7 storey building plus two levels of basement.

Known as One Fairchild Street, the £300m scheme will offer around 32,000m² of office space, with retail floorspace at ground level.

In a late design change, the brick cladding has been switched from a dark grey to a warmer terracotta colour.

The client team includes project and cost manager Cummin Group, structural, and WSP providing structural, civils and M&E consultancy.

It is estimated that over the 3.5-year construction programme around 675 construction jobs will be sustained.
