Originally built in 1965 to a design by John Madin, it was refurbished in 2003 to a design by Richard Johnson & Associates to give it a more fashionable appearance. Ashford Construction stripped all sixteen floors above the podium and added a new curtain walling from the top downwards. This produced a new roof feature which was designed by Watts & Partners. A new reception area was constructed and the 240 space car park was refurbished. It was developed by Kenmore Group. [1]
The tower has a gross area of 11,148 square metres (119,996 sq ft) with 8,918.4 square metres (95,997 sq ft) available for let once refurbishment was completed. [1]
Attached to the podium are a series of abstract concrete reliefs by William Mitchell which were commissioned by John Madin in 1965. [2]
The GI for this building was record setting by a prominent West London broker.[ clarification needed ]
Quayside Tower was bought by Chinese property investors in 2013. [3]
