Transforming an urban square into a new public park in the City of London

We are helping our client, British Land, realise their vision of creating a better quality, healthier and more sustainable mixed use destination that appeals to everyone. The public realm re-landscaping at Exchange Square will create a 1.5-acre park. It will quadruple the amount of green space at Broadgate and is the first to be delivered in the City in recent years.

The park will feature an exciting mix of planting and trees, a ‘tiered pools’ water feature, amphitheatre seating and new retail and event spaces, all of which will be open to everyone.

As part of the enabling works, we have undertaken inspections on the waterproofing layer along with liaison with Network Rail due to the fact the square sits above Liverpool Street Station. Works started in September 2020 to set up the site.
