Futurecity has been appointed to develop a public art commission for the Grosvenor Estates new 65 Davies Street development, Due for completion in September 2023, the development adds to the ongoing transformation of Mayfair and the Oxford Street District. Grosvenor currently has a £1.6 billion pipeline of development projects across Mayfair covering 1.7 million sq. ft. This includes the recently approved South Molton Street Triangle, a 2-acre mixed use redevelopment adjacent to the new Bond Street station, set to attract £6 millions of consumer spend per year and secure over 960 permanent jobs. Grosvenor has invested heavily in the recovery of the West End and its future resilience aiming to offer residents, workers, and visitors the best experience possible. The project will be delivered by Multiplex. Their appointment is Grosvenor Britain & Ireland’s first large construction contract award to take in to account a supplier’s commitment to a Science Based Target.
