One Pool Street, Olympic Park, London

Architect: Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands

Contractor: VINCI

Structural Engineer: AKT II

Client: University College London (UCL)

One Pool Street is one of two developments on the new UCL East campus. Together, the new buildings will house hi-tech laboratories and research space, student accommodation and designated areas for working with schools, charities and local groups. They will total more than 50,000 square metres and be home to 4,000 students and around 260 academic staff. Pool Street West is due to open in 2022, and Marshgate (being delivered by Mace) the year after.

The two new buildings are part of Transforming UCL, a £1.25bn ten-year programme of investment in UCL’s estate across London to support the University’s continuing growth.
