The former home of the BBC in White City, west London, is being converted into 950 apartments, which will be launched on the open market this April. Nearly half the homes will be inside the central circular area, known as the Doughnut, which is Grade II-listed, and the first phase is due for completion in 2018.
The development includes cafes, restau- rants, offices, a hotel and a new Soho House private members’ club with a rooftop swimming pool. Visit http://televisioncentre.com
The legacy of the broadcaster is set to continue with BBC Worldwide having taken occupation of a new headquarters in April 2015, retain- ing three studios, which are due to reopen in early 2017.
