McGee has been appointed for the second phase of works on the redevelopment of Mayfair’s oldest car park near Hyde Park Corner in  London.

McGee has successfully completed the decontamination and demolition of the existing NCP car park and has now been appointed to deliver the piling, enabling and 30,000m3 bulk excavation works to create the new basement space.

The latest  package of works also includes a seven-storey concrete core, upper and lower ground floor  slabs.

The works will make way for a new development with up to 30 apartments,  a gym, art gallery, retail and restaurant space.

McGee is working alongside AKT II for its client,  Motcomb Estates Limited on the £40m project.

Seb Fossey, Group Managing Director, said: “We have been working with the client and  their professional team since design stage two to develop our delivery methodology in line  with the design proposals.

“In doing so, it’s configured to provide the most efficient delivery  solution that helps to mitigate project risks. I am delighted that we have the opportunity to  continue this relationship through this next delivery phase.”
