Make’s plans for an 18-storey office tower on the south side of Blackfriars bridge were unanimously approved by Southwark council yesterday evening.

The block, called Building 1, will sit next door to the nearby railway station and contain around 8,000 sq m of workspace on space formerly occupied by the Ludgate House office block which was opened by former prime minister Margaret Thatcher in 1989 and was home to the Daily Express, publisher UBM and Balfour Beatty.
