It has been designed to achieve rigorous environmental standards and will be located directly opposite the Dean Street entrance to the new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.crossrail.co.uk\/route\/stations\/tottenham-court-road\/\">Tottenham Court Road Elizabeth<\/a> line station.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">The Oxford House scheme for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gpe.co.uk\/\">Great Portland Estates plc<\/a> will provide 124,000 square feet (NIA) of high-quality retail and office space.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">When complete, the building will provide retail space on the lower ground, ground and first floors with office accommodation on the upper floors. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Neil Martin, managing director of Lendlease, said: \u201cGreat Portland Estates is a long-standing client and a company we greatly admire.

A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/light-steel-framing\/56740\/\">structural steel framed<\/a> plant gantry will be constructed to the rear of the building.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The fa\u00e7ade of the building will consist of unitised curtain walling, with curved glass to the southeast and southwest corner. The shopfronts will use a glazed stick system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Office accommodation at 1 Newman Street has been designed to achieve the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breeam.com\/\">BREEAM<\/a> \u2018Excellent\u2019 environmental standard.
