Two-year project aims to transform exclusive Chelsea shopping street running from Knightsbridge to Sloane Square

John McAslan & Partners has started work on its £46m makeover of Sloane Street in Chelsea, one of the capital’s most exclusive shopping streets.

Its proposals, which are being jointly funded by the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and major local landowner Cadogan Estates, will see the pavements of Sloane Street widened, new trees planted, and the introduction of additional security measures.

McAslan’s scheme makes extensive use of York stone and silver granite. It will also introduce more elegant street furniture and dual-height lighting to better illuminate both street-level views and the distinctive architecture of the road, which runs between Knightsbridge and Sloane Square.
