Alphabeta Building
Alphabeta Building
Finsbury Square
London, January 2008
“In the 1980s, the older (pre-1940s) buildings were all comprehensively redeveloped, by Sheppard Robson & Partners, to form a new office complex: Triton Court. The interiors were gutted and rebuilt, but the façades were retained, albeit with the addition of a double-height mansard roof and the insertion of a new entrance arch through the four-bay extension to the original Edwardian block. These are now the only remaining pre-World War II buildings in the square. After the completion of Triton Court, the 1950s block alone was left with the designation Royal London House. In 2013–15, Triton Court was developed by Resolution Property into Alphabeta, a 220,000 sq ft office block.[17] This was sold to Indonesian real estate conglomerate Sinar Mas Land in 2015.” (Finsbury Square, Wikipedia)
