Delivered by ISG’s Reading-based project team, the scheme involves major structural alterations to reconfigure, modernise and extend the 1980s era building, creating circa 137,000 sq ft of Grade A, BREEAM Excellent rated office accommodation. In addition to improving the aesthetics, thermal performance and efficiency of the building, ISG will significantly extend the original footprint through the construction of two new wings, adding 20,000 sq ft of accommodation to the original property, providing the largest single office floor-plate in the Thames Valley.
The scheme builds on the experience of ISG’s Reading office in delivering challenging refurbishment schemes with significant structural elements; a key trend in the Thames Valley office market where demand for high-quality space continues to rise and much of the existing asset base is outdated with an inefficient layout.
