Applications for BDP’s Northern Estate programme also lodged

A series of planning applications for BDP’s Northern Estate programme have been submitted to Westminster council, including new images of AHMM’s temporary Commons chamber.

The plans, which are for buildings that run along Parliament Street and Whitehall, including the grade II-listed 54 Parliament Street, the grade I-listed Norman Shaw North building and the grade II*-listed Richmond House, are the first step to enabling the restoration and renewal of the Palace of Westminster.

AHMM’s temporary chamber will be built inside Richmond House, the former Department for Health building at 79 Whitehall which the ministry left in November 2017.
