Marshgate, UCL East campus Reaches Practical Completion Following 4 years of hard work by the entire client and project team, we are delighted to announce the end of the construction period of Marshgate, UCL 's new flagship building Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park . #UCLEast #EastBank

The first phase of our new campus #UCLEast at #EastBank on Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park is a step closer to completion following the handover of our flagship Marshgate building from construction partners Mace. ucl.ac.uk/news/2023/mar/… 🙌

As part of my investment in #EastBank, the legacy of the 2012 Olympics, I’m delighted that UCL East campus today moves one step closer to completion with the handover of their second & flagship venue. It’ll be fantastic to see the Marshgate building opening to students later this year.

Friends, I never thought it would come to this, but my neighbours and I have launched a petition to save the front gardens of the Vanbrugh Park Estate which the council wants to destroy. Please share as widely as you possibly can. Keep Greenwich green! change.org/p/save-the-van…

Saw this last night - it is excellent
