The Building is located at West One Shopping Centre, Oxford Street, W1. The works comprised of the refurbishment of the lower ground and ground floor concourse at West One Shopping Centre. The works included AV, IT, security installations and structured cabling, all whilst the centre was occupied.
The scheme consisted of stripping out the existing glazed atrium, infilling the south area of slab surrounding the escalator at ground floor level and new wall, floor and ceiling finishes throughout.
At Davies Street, the existing layout was reconfigured to create a new unit. The stair layout at Davies Street was also structurally altered to form a new fire escape at ground floor level.
We worked around the opening times of the current tenants and Bond Street Underground station to open up the atrium, replace the M&E, including fire alarms and suppression and install a new ceiling with lighting by using a phased approach.
We ensured that overnight working reinstated all services prior to the centre opening each day in time for deliveries and access to the tube station.
Close communication with tenants and neighbours gave a successful project for all.
