McAlpine set for Victoria


Sir Robert McAlpine looks to have got its feet under the table for an estimated £50m-plus deal to build a high-profile office/ apartments complex in central London.

It is understood that the firm is locked in negotiations with the client, Grosvenor Estates, about the Belgrave House scheme near Victoria station.

The centerpiece of the deal will be a seven-storey 35,000m2 office block in Portland stone - the 1970s-built Belgrave House on the Buckingham Palace Road site will be demolished.

The project also involves refurbishing a century-old adjacent building, Chantry House, to provide 38 apartments as well as ground-floor shops.

The London-based architect Michael Squire has already secured planning consent forthe project from Westminster council.
