A 570,000 square feet mixed-use project has been approved on the former site of Middlesex Hospital, in Fitzrovia, London.
An application was submitted in September last year and Westminster City Council has now said the project can go ahead.
Preparatory works on the site have been going on since December and are due for completion in April this year.
However, no contractor has been chosen to build the 300,000 square feet of office space, 20,000 square foot of retail and restaurant space and the 237 apartments that will make up 'The Middlesex', which was designed by architects Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands and Sheppard Robson.
Mark Younger of Exemplar told Construction Enquirer: "With enabling works underway, we are already bringing this vacant site back into use and anticipate strong demand for the offices, retail units and apartments once we begin marketing later this year."
It is anticipated that the project will be completed in 2014.
