Being a landlord can often be stressful. One of the biggest worries is void periods. These times when you don’t have tenants in a property can mean you are losing money.

We offer the greatest services for guaranteed rent Islington has. If you work with us there will be no need to think about tenancies.

A big change for an Islington landmark

London is full of amazing buildings. Some stand out for their unique designs and heritage features. Others are examples of hyper modernism and use newer materials and techniques. Whatever interests you, you will probably find it in the city.

There are also properties that divide opinion, generating love on one side and hate and derision on the other. One property that falls firmly into this category is 1 Torrens Street, aka Angel Square. Some people love the 80s block with its unusual external features and faux Italianate campanile clock tower. Others call it a tasteless mashup and point to a number of issues with it. However, it is hard to deny that it is a landmark.

However, the building will soon disappear. Proposals recently got approval to redevelop it. The project will involve the removal of the facade and all decorative elements. The internal layout will be altered, including adding new storeys. There will also be work to fill in a courtyard separating the four blocks.

The new building will have a modern glass facade. The designer, AHMM, said the high quality new exterior will be sensitive to the context of the area. The idea is it will fit nicely into such a key location and complement an 80s office block adjacent to it. With a quiet and subtle design it will ensure surrounding buildings have visual dominance.

Heritage groups including Save Britain’s Heritage had objections to the plans, citing the value of the existing landmark. However, the council gave permission. The view was that the current building does not have sufficient design qualities to warrant protection. It also does not have a listing to protect it. An attempt to defer the scheme also failed to generate enough support.

What now?

Seemingly the redevelopment can now commence. It will create more workspace for the area, with more affordable options for local businesses. Plus, the changes will improve the services inside and thermal efficiency of the building’s fabric. The latter will make it a more energy efficient property.
