A growing number of tall buildings and skyscrapers are principally used by the financial sector. Almost all are situated in the eastern side around Bishopsgate, Leadenhall Street and Fenchurch Street, in the financial core of the City. In the north, there is a smaller cluster comprising the Barbican Estate's three tall residential towers and the commercial CityPoint tower. There are more structures in construction as you read this.

Whitebread

History 

In 1742 Samuel Whitbread formed a partnership with Godfrey and Thomas Shewell and they acquired a small brewery at the junction of Old Street and Upper Whitecross Street and another brewhouse for pale and amber beers in Brick Lane, Spitalfields.Godfrey Shewell withdrew from the partnership as Thomas Shewell and Samuel Whitbread bought the large site of the derelict King's Head brewery in Chiswell Street in 1750. 

The new brewery was for the production of porter, and was renamed the Hind Brewery after the Whitbread family coat of arms. From the outset, Whitbread was the leading financial partner, and solely responsible for management, and in 1761, Whitbread acquired Shewell's share of the business for £30,000.

 It was the largest brewery in the world by the 1780s. In 1796 the company produced 202,000 barrels of porter. The firm struggled after the death of Samuel Whitbread Sr, and saw ownership transfer to his son, also called Samuel Whitbread. 

The company adopted the name Whitbread & Co Ltd in 1799.The company was first listed on the London Stock Exchange in 1948.  Between 1961 and 1971, Whitbread's output increased from 2.1 to 7.4 million hectolitres and it became Britain's third-largest brewer by output. In 1972, Whitbread became the initiating sponsor of the Whitbread Round the World Race (now called the Volvo Ocean Race), a sailing yacht race around the world held every three years. Whitbread sponsored the race until 2001.Whitbread acquired a 20% stake in TVS for £6.5M from European ferries in April 1984. Whitbread Group Plc decided in 2001 to sell all its breweries and brewing interests (Whitbread Beer Company) to Interbrew, now known as InBev.

 Whitbread-branded alcoholic beverages are still available in the UK, such as canned Whitbread bitter, but these are not produced by InBev, merely produced under licence by other producers. InBev controls the use of the Whitbread brand, and the hind's head logo, for use on beverages. In 2002 Whitbread sold its pub estate, known as the Laurel Pub Company, to Enterprise Inns.The Whitbread & Co brewery building at 52 Chiswell Street in London still survives, although beer ceased to be brewed there in 1976 and it is now a conference and events venue. Still named "The Brewery", it was part of the Earls Court and Olympia Group from 2005 to 2012, where it was subsequently sold to a private investor. In 2005, it moved its core operations from CityPoint in central London, to Oakley House in Luton, and then, in 2006, to larger offices at Whitbread Court in Dunstable (previously used by the now defunct Whitbread Restaurants Company) in a bid to reduce costs. 

In 2006, it went on to sell 239 of its 271 Beefeater sites to Mitchells & Butlers. In January 2010, Whitbread introduced a new corporate logo, and replaced the tagline "welcome with a smile" with "Eat, Sleep and Drink".In 2013, as part of the 2013 meat adulteration scandal DNA tests revealed that horsemeat was present in some meat products sold in outlets owned by Whitbread.Ready packed meal firm Findus, Compass Group was the world's biggest catering firm at the time, and Whitbread, which was at the time Britain's biggest hotel group was indicted for illegally selling concealed horse meat in food products. In a public letter later that day, 11 firms, including Tesco and Asda, said they shared shoppers' "anger and outrage". Whitbread vowed to remedy the unacceptable situation on 26 February 2013.

CityPoint is a skyscraper located on Ropemaker Street on the northern fringe of the City of London.

Colliers brings a new 5-acre Waltham development opportunity to market

BOSTON– Colliers International recently announced that it has brought to market 305 Winter Street, a rare five-acre development opportunity in the heart of Waltham with views of the Boston skyline.

Located immediately off Route 128 at Exit 27, the existing 31,575-square-foot industrial building is nestled between CityPoint and Hobbs Brook Office Park, surrounded by an impressive roster of neighboring companies, including, but not limited to Wolverine Worldwide, Care.com, ThermoFisher Scientific, Wolters Kluwer, Shire, Dassault Systemes, and Cimpress.

Considered the most dynamic and thriving suburban Boston market, Waltham enjoys access to a deep labor pool, drawing from Cambridge, Boston and the suburbs, and benefits from tenant migration since it can offer meaningful rent discounts to the urban cores. Its proximity to Route 2 increasingly makes Waltham an appealing relief valve to life science companies relocating out of Cambridge.

Having been owner occupied since the mid-1960s, the offering provides an unusual opportunity to realize the untapped potential of a premier Waltham site through vertical expansion, full redevelopment, etc.

Leaders of Colliers International’s Route 128 Mass Pike team, executive vice president John Carroll III and senior vice president Bill Lynch, in collaboration with the Investment Sales team, are representing ownership in this exciting offering.

Simpson Gumpertz & Heger Selects Margulies Perruzzi Architects to Design New Corporate Headquarters

BOSTON – Margulies Perruzzi Architects (MPA) announced that Simpson Gumpertz & Heger (SGH) has selected the firm to provide space planning and interior design services for SGH’s new complementary locations in Waltham and Boston.

SGH is a national engineering firm that designs, investigates, and rehabilitates structures, building enclosures, and materials. SGH will move from its current headquarters at 41 Seyon Street in Waltham, Mass. to 110,000 SF at 20 CityPoint in Waltham and 14,000 SF in Boston’s Prudential Tower. The two new locations will embrace a high-performance and sustainable workplace strategy, with open and efficient floor plans promoting collaborative, team-based work.

“MPA’s commitment to exceptional design and thoughtful workplace strategy is a winning combination that will help us realize our vision for both locations,” said Charles Russo, Chief Executive Officer of SGH. “We are partnering with MPA to create an inspiring CityPoint location that grows our laboratory, research, and innovation capabilities and a vibrant downtown Boston location that immerses our engineering team with our long-standing clients and academic partners, and with the innovation of Boston.”

Workplace strategy is a key component of MPA’s open and modern designs, which maximize collaboration, natural light, and operational flexibility. Both of SGH’s spaces will have multiple and varied office resources for employees to work both independently and in teams, such as individual work stations, focused/quiet work areas, unstructured space, and collaborative work spaces with different technology resources. SGH’s headquarters at 20 CityPoint incorporates a gallery on the first floor where clients and visitors can observe and interact with ongoing activities in the company’s physical and materials testing, laboratory, and experimentation areas.

MPA assisted SGH with an accelerated design process for the Prudential space for an August 2018 occupancy. Concurrent with the Prudential design, MPA advanced the planning and design for the CityPoint space so that SGH and Boston Properties could incorporate the tenant improvements into the ongoing construction of the new building. The CityPoint location is expected to be complete in August 2019. Boston Properties is the landlord for both locations.

The project team includes:

Architect: Margulies Perruzzi Architects

Developer: Boston Properties

Construction Manager: Commodore Builders

Structural Engineer: Simpson Gumpertz & Heger (SGH)

MEP Engineer: AHA Consulting Engineers.
