The redevelopment of Southwark Fire Station is a major mixed-use development, branded as Brigade Court. Brigade Court is the first development in the new joint venture vehicle between Goldman Sachs International and Urbanwise Developments.
The plans include a comprehensive refurbishment of the Grade II listed former fire station, Headquarters, museum and training facility originally built in 1777, alongside the development of a 10-storey residential building to create 199 new apartments, commercial space and a new school to house 1,150 students.
A new 10,700 sqm secondary school, designed by Peter Taylor Associates, sensitively blends tradition with the cutting-edge expertise.
The school building incorporates space within the existing fire station as well as a new building that is being constructed using pre-fabricated off-site modular technology.
On the adjacent Grotto site, Ardmore is also delivering a 15,600 sqft sports centre with a multi-use games area and outdoor artificial pitch for use by both the school and local community.
