The City of London Corporation has approved plans to refurbish the building at 65 Fleet Street into a new mixed-use scheme, that will deliver a wide range of additional benefits for local residents, workers and visitors.
Currently an underused office building, the site will be retrofitted and transformed into a professionally managed, student living accommodation, with over 850 rooms, set near to the London School of Economics and Kings College London. At the ground floor level of the new building, a visitor experience area will be created to support public educational programmes, that will connect Fleet Street's printing heritage to future generations.
