JRA scoops third national newspaper HQ refurb

John Robertson Architects’ plans to refurbish the Daily Mail’s former headquarters have been approved by the City of London Corporation.

The Northcliffe House project is the practice’s third listed ex-newspaper office in the City, following its refurbishment of the Daily Express building on Fleet Street in 2000 and its work to return the Financial Times to its Bracken House home in 2018.

The latest scheme will add new storeys to the 1926 art deco building south of Fleet Street which once housed the Mail and its printing presses until its move to Kensington in the late 1980s.
