Welcome and Introduction

Welcome to the public exhibition of the proposals for the future of 55 Broadway and the neighbouring 100 Petty France and Wing Over Station buildings in the heart of historic Westminster.

Integrity International Group has recently purchased the complex with the intention of becoming the new long-term custodians of 55 Broadway, sensitively restoring the Grade I listed early-modernist building and opening it up to the public through its conversion to a high-quality hotel, owned and operated by Integrity International Group and its Chairman, leading hotelier Tony Matharu.

We are keen to understand the views of our neighbours and the local community about how 55 Broadway can contribute positively to its neighbourhood as a high-quality hotel, before submitting a planning application to Westminster City Council.

We would be grateful if you could complete a feedback form once you have reviewed the exhibition and return this via the ballot box or email. The exhibition materials are also available via our website 55-broadway.com.

Members of our project team are available to discuss the proposals and respond to any questions you may have.

Drawing of proposals for 55 Broadway

55 Broadway – an iconic building2.

55 Broadway was built between 1927 and 1929 in an art-deco, early-modernist style as the headquarters of the Underground Electric Railways of London Ltd which at the time was gradually taking control of London’s privately-run public transport companies.

The new building served as both offices and as a symbol for the Underground Electric Railways of London, which was subsequently taken into public ownership and became London Transport in 1933.

As the tallest office building in the capital at the time, it was dubbed ‘London’s first skyscraper’ at just over 53 metres and won the RIBA London Architecture Medal upon its completion.

55 Broadway was awarded Grade II listed status by English Heritage in 1970.

Due to the exceptional architectural interest of the building and its position as a milestone in 20th Century design, this was upgraded to a Grade I listed status in 2011.

The building still retains many of its original features, such as the lobby and landings, as well as wood panelled boardrooms on the 7th floor.

Under our proposals , the conversion of 55 Broadway to a high-quality hotel will see these unique features sensitively retained and celebrated, with the public able to access and view this landmark civic building for the first time.

Public Exhibition

Famous Figures in the History of 55 Broadway3.

The architect of 55 Broadway was Charles Holden (1875 to 1960), who designed more than 50 London Underground stations in the 1920 and 1930s. In addition to his work on the Underground, one of Charles Holden’s other notable work in the capital is the Senate House of the University of London.

CHARLES HOLDEN

55 Broadway was commissioned by Lord Ashfield who was the Chairman of the Underground Electric Railways of London Ltd between 1910 and 1933, a predecessor of Transport for London.

LORD ASHFIELD

The Vice-Chairman and Chief Executive of the Underground Electric Railways at the time 55 Broadway was commissioned was Frank Pick, who oversaw many of the Underground’s most recognisable symbols, including the roundel Tube Station signs and the Underground Map which is still in use today.

He appreciated the importance of design in his work, employing some of the most forward thinking artists and designers of the day, and had a unique working relationship with architect Charles Holden.

FRANK PICK

The first part of the site comprises the Grade I listed 55 Broadway building which was constructed of Portland stone on a metal frame and completed in 1929.

The building was until recently the head office of Transport for London who have sold the site to Integrity International Group and are in the process of moving to other office buildings in the capital which meet the requirements of modern office occupiers.

Whilst retaining many of its historic features, the building is tired internally and in need of investment to sensitively facilitate its renewal.

At ground floor, there is the 55 Broadway arcade which was introduced in the 1980s and comprises a series of small retail units, as well as the entrance to St James’s Park underground station.

In the centre of the ground floor, is the reception area for the office building, which means users of the underground who are approaching from the south are required to undertake a circuitous route through the arcade.

55 BROADWAY

55 Broadway 100 Petty France Wing over station

This building was erected in the 1970s and relates in height to neighbouring Albany House. The two properties form a modest and understated terrace as a whole.

100 Petty France follows the building line of the previous building on the site, Electric Railways House, engaging with 55 Broadway in a similar way. The steel element is clad in Portland Stone with a grey/ green stone spandrel panel below the windows.

The rear façade is a property cladding system with back painted glass panels and strip windows. An unusual feature is an elliptical stair / lift core that forms a transition between the building and the ‘Wing Over Station’ building. An unsightly and clumsy bridge at the rear links four levels of the building to 55 Broadway

100 Petty France is to be retained and converted into hotel bedrooms.

100 PETTY FRANCE

The Wing Over Station building was developed as an extension of Electric Railways House in 1922 – 24 to designs by Sir Albert Richardson and Charles Gill. It has no street elevations and is utilitarian in appearance. It was innovative for its time as an early example of a building spanning a railway line.

It forms one side of the Albany House Courtyard and has a stepping elevation against St Ermin’s Hotel to the rear. It is proposed to reclaim this building in its current form and to convert it to hotel bedrooms.

WING OVER STATION

The 55 Broadway site consists of three parts.

Our Vision for 55 Broadway5.

Integrity International Group, as the new long-term custodians of 55 Broadway, has three principle objectives for the future of this landmark building.

1. To open-up 55 Broadway for public benefit by providing access, supporting the community and contributing to the local economy.

2. To cherish the building and celebrate its heritage.3. To create a high-quality hotel worthy of the building, to be owned and operated by a

dedicated hotel expert.

Permeability and Place Making6.

55 Broadway is a landmark building at a point of notable significance. It stands at the centre of a key junction between two major axes supplying central London with connectivity.

The north-south axis connects Horseferry Road and Milbank to St James’s Park and Mayfair, while the east-west axis connects Victoria Railway Station to Westminster and to Parliament Square. It makes a wayfinding node on significant pedestrian routes that serve both visitors and the local resident and working community.

At present, the direct route through the ground floor of the building is blocked by the office reception requiring pedestrians to walk through

the arcade which was introduced in the late 1980s. Our proposals will seek to reinstate this direct north – south route which formed part of Charles Holden’s original vision. This will enable a more permeable site resulting in ease of public access directly through the building towards from Milbank and Victoria through to St James’s Park.

Opening 55 Broadway into a more publicly accessible scheme will improve visual and functional links in the heart of Westminster.

Original building plan

Proposed typical upper-floor plan

The New Hotel7.

The new hotel would consist of around 500 rooms, located in the three parts of 55 Broadway.

The existing cruciform structure of 55 Broadway readily lends itself to the sensitive conversion from office use around corridors, to high-quality hotel rooms.

The premium hotel rooms would be located within 55 Broadway from the 2nd to the 9th floors, whilst smaller rooms would be located within 100 Petty France and Wing Over Station.

This approach would ensure that the hotel is genuinely accessible and attractive to a range of visitors.

The structure of the floors and our commitment to working with the heritage of the building would also mean construction and any disruption to neighbours would be kept to a minimum.

An ancillary food and beverage and retail offer would also be located at the ground floor, helping to activate the area around the site and encouraging people into this unique building in line with Holden’s original vision for the site.

The first floor would be converted to a series of informal and formal meeting spaces and conference suites, which would also be accessible to hotel guests, visitors and the public.

A spa area would be introduced at the ground floor and basement level providing additional amenity for guests, local residents and workers.

By refurbishing the existing building and delivering an energy strategy that optimises carbon reduction within the historic fabric of 55 Broadway, we are ensuring that we deliver a more sustainable development while protecting its heritage.

Operational Management Statement9.

The main public access point to the hotel would be via the eastern arm of the cruciform on the

corner of Broadway. A secondary access would be located on Petty France.

The new hotel will be staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with a security phone number to be

provided to neighbouring residents.

The main hotel reception will be on the first floor, with concierge and guest service desks on the

ground floor.

The ground floor would consist of a series of restaurants and retail units, that would be accessible to the public, creating a place in

which visitors, residents and workers will wish to spend time, meet and relax throughout the

week.

Proposed ground floor plan

Transport and Servicing10.

• 55 Broadway benefits from excellent public transport links, being located directly above St James’s Park Underground Station. As a result, no visitor parking is proposed at this location.

• Guests at the hotel would be encouraged to arrive and depart either by public transport or taxi with taxis waiting on Broadway, away from residential properties.

• Deliveries, waste and refuse would all be undertaken via a dedicated servicing bay at the ground floor of the Wing Over Station section, which would be accessed through St Ermin’s Hill.

• The owners’ assessments suggest that the single use of the building as a hotel would require no additional servicing vehicles than in the current use.

• Our proposals have been developed in a way that seeks to be respectful to all local residents, sharing St Ermin’s Hill with St Ermin’s Hotel and keeping servicing away from residents in the area. Integrity International Group is also committed to consolidating servicing requirements to reduce vehicular traffic.

Sustainability11.

Sustainability is one of our core principles; IIG recognises the importance of ensuring, wherever possible, that our buildings are environmentally sustainable and create a positive impact for the wider community. • With 55 Broadway we are retaining the entire

building which, along with protecting its historic architectural features, reduces the amount of construction work and new materials required.

• As we refurbish the site, we will replace outdated, inefficient plant equipment with smart mechanical and engineering technology and introduce secondary glazing where possible, targeting a 15% improvement on emissions compared to the current building.

• We are supporting the biodiversity of the area by introducing a new ecological garden and urban bee hives at upper levels.

Affordable and Clean Energy – pioneering designs

Tower Suites, Integrity International Group’s newest hotel in the City of London, has an innovative, high-quality design delivering low energy demand. The hotel has achieved the BREEAM “Excellent” sustainability qualification. The pioneering features of Tower Suites enable a large percentage of the building’s total energy usage to be generated from renewable energy sources, satisfying the requirements of the City Corporation’s clean energy

development plan for 2026.

Climate Action – demonstrating responsibility to our environment

With the power of collaboration, we sustainably source environmentally friendly products and are committed to working with local suppliers. We also encourage guests in our hotels to conserve on energy

consumption.

Sustainable Cities and Communities

The nearby St Andrew’s Club has been enriching young lives for over 150 years. They are a local charity and community based youth club in Westminster, where around 40% of children are classed as living below the poverty line. They provide a safe, welcoming and active environment that helps their members, aged five to adulthood, develop educationally, socially and personally through a wide range of sport, art, practical skills, trips out and training. IIG is committed to supporting the local youth of St Andrew’s Club in

sustaining the running of their programmes.

Responsible Production and Consumption – joining the big climate fightback

We encourage our team to volunteer and participate in a mass tree planting campaign across London and the UK to help reach the government’s aim of 1.5bn new trees by 2050 and the net zero carbon target. We are always on the lookout for innovative ways to make

a positive sustainable impact on the environment.
