John Butten, Regional Managing Director – Major Projects at McLaren, said: "We are pleased to celebrate the topping out of our third building at Wembley Park with Quintain and Brent Council today. Linking in with the communities where we work is key for McLaren and we look forward to developing long‐term relationships within Brent.

"25 per cent of the employees on the two sites are Brent locals and it is wonderful that McLaren has been able to contribute to so many community engagement initiatives in Wembley Park."

Matt Voyce, Executive Director of Construction at Quintain, added: "We're thrilled to be able to mark this occasion, alongside Brent and McLaren. We're proud to work with considerate construction partners like McLaren to deliver these landmark buildings, including our first dedicated commercial office building as part of our masterplan for Wembley Park. This is a significant moment for Quintain in the delivery and transportation of this 85 acre area development."

The office building is set to be completed in summer 2019 with the residential building expected in February 2020.
