Grosvenor has submitted a planning application to transform the South Molton Triangle in Mayfair.
The proposals include 204,000 sq ft of new grade-A office space, 67,000 sq ft of shops, restaurants and cafes, a 31-bed hotel and 33 homes, of which 22 will be for the open market and 11 affordable.
The new buildings are expected to produce 35% less carbon than ones built to current UK standards and will be serviced by electric vehicle to reduce street pollution and traffic.
In addition, 250 bike spaces for office workers will be provided along with new trees and greening.
The South Molton Triangle spans two acres, is bounded by South Molton Street, Davies Street and Brook Street, and lies immediately opposite the new Bond Street West Elizabeth Line station.
Thomasin Renshaw, director of development at Grosvenor Britain & Ireland, said: “Our proposals for the South Molton Triangle are a sign of our significant confidence in, and commitment to, the future of the West End and Oxford Street district. These designs put pedestrians first in a sustainable scheme that preserves what’s great about Mayfair while bringing the jobs and investment London now needs to see.”
The plans were designed by Hopkins Architects, Donald Insall Associates advised on the retention and adaptation of the historical buildings and Gerald Eve advised on the planning.
