BMH Demolition - Scaffolding from Tue 30th

Raj Mandair of "Westbourne" (who we're told are the communications entity for Taylor Wimpey) tells us (see text below) that the scaffolding needed for the demolition of Bernard Morgan House will be installed starting on Tuesday 30th May.

This weekend is the last time you'll be able to see Bernard Morgan House in the flesh:

Soon to be gone

The City of London’s Planning and Transportation Committee met on Tuesday 23rd May and granted planning approval, subject to signing of the s106 agreement, for the demolition of the existing building and construction of a new residential building to provide 99 new homes.

In preparation for the demolition works, we anticipate commencing the installation of scaffolding on Tuesday 30th May. The necessary and appropriate licenses have already been agreed with the City. It is expected that these works will last four weeks. Thereafter, and until demolition is complete, the scaffold structure and building will be wrapped in protective sheeting to minimise dust and noise pollution.

Taylor Wimpey Central London is committed to working with the community to reduce the impact of construction works for our neighbours. We are in the process of setting up a Construction Liaison Group and will look to meet with you regularly to share information and engage in balanced discussions about construction and operational aspects of the site’s redevelopment.

Taylor Wimpey Central London want to make a positive contribution to the area and keep disruption to an absolute minimum while construction works are taking place. Should you have any further questions about the development and proposed construction works, please feel free to contact me on raj.mandair@westbournecoms.com or 020 3397 1874.
