Pilbrow & Partners’ proposals for 8 Albert Embankment commissioned by U+I were selected by London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority (LFEPA) to deliver a major mixed-use masterplan on the Fire Brigades’ Headquarters’ site.
The scheme delivers a state-of-the-art new Fire Station, a new Fire Services Museum, a hotel together with residential and employment space. A revitalised public realm, animated by ground floor shops and cafes, creates new routes and spaces across the development. The scheme proposals carefully integrate new building with the restoration of the two listed buildings on the site.
