Rise in London’s Office to Residential Conversions

Media buzz earlier this month confirmed that The City of London Corporation have identified conversions of empty offices into housing could be the answer to reviving the area in a post-covid era.

This news comes after areas of the city have become deserted, leaving many assets stranded with a high risk of staying that way in the changing office market. The plans outlined to overcome this situation, include aims for over 1,500 new homes before 2030 and features the conversion and refurbishment of existing buildings as well as new-build schemes.
