Workspace provider The Office Group has opened up its latest site, a former 1980s office block on London’s Pentonville Road which has been given a makeover by dMFK Architects. The existing building has been extended by fives storeys to eight and includes a state-of-the-art gym, café, library, terraces and roof gardens. York House is the group’s 38th workspace to open in the UK, the majority of them in London. Others to work on the scheme included QS Quantem, structural engineer Webb Yates and contractor Collins Construction.
Blackstone-based The Office Group has opened a co-working centre in a recently renovated property on London’s Pentonville Road. It is the first of its kind and will be used by about 20 start-ups to work out how they can use blockchain technology for their businesses. Last month the company announced its entry in the German market after signing leases on five properties.
