Project Details:
This major landlord enabling project involved the comprehensive redevelopment and subdivision of a former Debenhams department store, creating multiple commercial units ready for occupation by new retail and leisure tenants.
The landlord works included the subdivision of the existing building, with significant structural alterations carried out to facilitate the new layouts. Existing escalator openings were infilled using new structural steelwork, composite metal decking and reinforced concrete to create continuous floor plates. New slab openings were formed to accommodate service risers, while a new single-ply membrane roof was installed to enhance the building’s weatherproofing and long-term performance.
A new rooftop plant deck was constructed with segregated safety fencing, alongside the installation of new SVP pop-up drainage systems designed to meet the specific requirements of the incoming tenants. Extensive infrastructure upgrades included the installation of a new sprinkler tank system serving the building, together with new incoming electrical and water supplies, BT ductwork, landlord fire alarm systems and emergency lighting, all carefully interfaced with the individual tenant systems. All landlord areas were completed in accordance with the client’s specification, including final decorations and finishes.
