FT Feature: King’s Cross
The FT ran a feature on the regeneration of King’s Cross over the weekend. The statistics for King’s Cross Central come thick and fast: there will be 20 new streets, 10 major public spaces and 50 new buildings. Meanwhile, 20 historic buildings and structures are being restored and refurbished. There will be 8m sq ft of mixed-use space and 22 per cent of King’s Cross Central has even now been “taken” with staff and students from Central St Martins College of Art and Design having already moved in.
