Scheme at 2-3 Finsbury Avenue designed by Danish architect 3XN

British Land has said it expects work to start on a new City tower it is developing later this year as the firm said demand for top-end space in the capital was rising among tenants.

The firm behind a swathe of high-profile office buildings in the City in recent years, including Sir Robert McAlpine’s 100 Liverpool Street scheme at Broadgate as well as the Cheesegrater, built by Laing O’Rourke, said work on the 37-storey office block at 2-3 Finsbury Avenue, set to be built by McAlpine, could start in the third quarter of this year.
