Mace has been selected as the main contractor for the Landsec Timber Square redevelopment on Lavington Street in Southwark. The announcement confirms Landsec’s commitment to delivering the project in full and will progress Landsec’s ambition to deliver a one million sq ft green office cluster in Southwark.

Air Source Heat Pumps will be the primary heat source of the development. The redevelopment is targeting a BREAAM ‘Excellent’ and Well Core Platinum, as well as £205 million social and local economic value generated during the project life cycle. Pat Fitzgerald, Commercial Director for Major Projects at Mace, said: “We are delighted to be working with LandSec on another fantastic project.
