Construction News Image
Mace has been selected as principal contractor by Aviva Investors and Allianz Real Estate at the partnership's 101 Moorgate project in the City of London.

The over-station development, which will sit above Moorgate station's Hammersmith & City line, at the heart of the new Elizabeth Line complex, will be delivered by Mace for Aviva Investors and Allianz Real Estate.

The 10-storey building will provide eight floors of grade A office space, as well as a mezzanine-level business lounge and retail spaces. A generous roof terrace, and additional outdoor areas at lower levels will provide green spaces to enhance wellbeing for occupants. A newly created covered walkway will provide public access between Moorgate and Moorfields.

Diesel-free in construction and fossil-fuel free in operation, the project will be fully electric using air-source heat pumps throughout, and photovoltaic panels – targeting BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ rating upon completion.

101 Moorgate will make significant use of offsite solutions including the manufacture of precast concrete panels with double-glazed aluminium punched windows, fully assembled in a factory, further reducing the building’s carbon footprint.

The Moorgate over-station development will form part of the new Liverpool Street station’s Moorgate entrance. The building has been designed in close consultation with the Crossrail engineering team to ensure integration with the complex transport structures to the south end of the site and below street level.

Mace will be undertaking both the construction and category A fit-out. Main construction will begin in October 2022, with completion expected in September 2024.

Mace's Managing Director, Commercial Offices & Residential, Ged Simmonds, said: "We are proud that Mace will be playing a key role in Aviva Investors’ vision for 101 Moorgate. Not only is 101 Moorgate an exciting project right on our doorstep, but it’s our first project with Aviva and Alianz Real Estate. There is a common ambition to create a building that excels on all levels as a truly sustainable workplace for generations to come."
