Tower Hamlets Council has granted permission to retrofit the vacant office building at 17 Columbus Courtyard, Canary Wharf, E14, into a 250,000 sq ft life sciences facility.
The existing development on-site spans across a total of 12 floors split between two basement levels and 10 above ground levels. The proposed transformation consists of minor extensions to the existing building, partial façade replacement and upgrades, improvements to the ground floor entrance and wider internal refurbishment.
The project is set to reposition the building to allow potential future occupation by life sciences firms.
