Complex Crane Engineering at 1 Victoria Street, London
13.05.2026 | Press Release
The redevelopment of 1 Victoria Street is transforming the site of an old 1960s office block into a modern, low carbon workplace in the heart of Westminster. The new building is being constructed on the original foundations, avoiding the need for new piling and significantly reducing embodied carbon. This approach, however, created unusual tower crane environments in central London: all cranes had to be installed at B2 basement level, directly on foundations more than sixty years old.
