Bernard Morgan House Event

Taylor Wimpey held their Bernard Morgan House exhibition this evening, run by the Wesbourne communications company (Slogan: Call Westbourne, change opinion).

The exhibition will be also running tomorrow from 10:00am.  See the calendar (on the right) for details.

Taylor Wimpey are proposing a new ~40m 12 story (including the ground floor) structure set back 1.5m from the Golden Lane pavement to allow for a light well for the below ground floor rooms.  The current building rises to just ground + 5 stories and is set back by a few meters behind a sunken garden, so the mass of the proposed building is much greater than the old.

You can see details on the http://www.bmhconsultation.co.uk/ website.  Here are a couple of images from the site (click on the images for a larger view):
