Building Detail

A typical floor is 7,050 sq ft net with 600 sq ft of south facing balconies. Shops and cafes will be housed at street level. A through-reception can be accessed either from the main entrance on Pancras Square or from King’s Boulevard.

Environmental Performance
As with all the office buildings at King’s Cross, the very latest technology reduces running costs for occupiers and minimizes environmental impact. The building is rated BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ and is linked to the site-wide district heating network. This network provides close to 100% of the development’s heating and hot water needs. The building is designed with both active chilled beams and opening windows so that it can be ventilated mechanically or naturally. Carbon emissions will be substantially lower than required.
