The Ark
Client: Landid
Office: London
The Ark is an iconic, landmark building situated in Hammersmith, adjacent to the flyover. The works included the demolition of the central core village, creation of a two storey atrium, modifications to the entrance foyer and connection of the office plates on levels two to seven. A mezzanine floor has been constructed at level eight. Total net lettable floor area is now 13,940 sq m.
Watts was initially consulted for cost advice prior to acquisition of the building and subsequently engaged to administer the construction works and provide quantity surveying post-contract. Watts integrated with the client’s team to appoint a management contractor and remained actively involved on a day-to-day basis to ensure effective cost consultancy, project continuity and successful delivery of this prestigious development.
