Archway Tower

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archway_Tower

Essential Living has welcomed the decision by the Planning Inspectorate to grant planning permission for the recladding of one of London’s most hated tower blocks.

Archway Tower in north London is to be converted from an unused, derelict 1960s office block into new high quality apartments that will be managed for long term rent. As well as the re-clad, the tower will get a new two-storey entrance to the building.

Work has already begun on converting the tower’s interior – which was enabled under the Coalition’s extension of permitted development rights. The recent planning decision however, means that Essential Living can now start work on the exterior. The company Is developing a brand focused on the private rental market, and plans to invest more than £30 million to turn Archway Tower into a landmark building to the benefit of the local area and economy.
