AHMM’s proposals to build a 20-storey student accommodation tower on the London Met’s former School of Architecture site have been submitted for planning.

The City fringe scheme for the Prudential Assurance Company and the City of London Corporation would also retain and extend the site’s Calcutta House for higher education use. Development manager on the project is Trilogy Real Estate.

The 0.5ha site is currently occupied by a dense cluster of buildings including spaces previously occupied by the London Metropolitan University’s School of Architecture and Design, formerly called The Cass. If you want to read more go to Building design.
