City Road station
I haven't had a good look, but I think they have completely demolished
the surface building that's been there as long as I remember, and are building a new block, probably of flats. I imagine its function as an emergency exit has not been compromised, although I'm not certain. |

It seems it isn't going to be flats: Application Number: P2015/1008/FUL Address: Ventilation Shaft Adjacent to Kestrel House, 191 Central Street & Land near City Road Bridge, City Road, London EC1 Description: Part demolition of the existing building and construction of a new energy centre comprising a part three/part four storey extension including heat exchanger coil, 4 storey stack of containerised plant to the corner of Moreland and Central Street, new thermal store and flue on eastern elevation of Kestral House. The new buidling will be metal clad; new vehicle access off Moreland Street, raised planter beds and boundary walls. (Reconsultation following revised design and details to the main finished design and external appearance of the proposed energy centre) More via the search form at http://planning.islington.gov.uk/nor...ralsearch.aspx and also P2017/0764/S73 (variation of conditions) and various others for details such as piling method etc. LUL service stairs are on the plans as is a Heat Exchange Coil above the vent shaft so it appears the Northern line will be contributing to the heating of Kestrel House. http://planning.islington.gov.uk/Nor...s/00434738.pdf for the proposed site plan. |
