MARYLEBONE HOUSE
Virtual Exhibition
Welcome to the first virtual exhibition for the emerging ideas for the
proposed extensive refurbishment of Marylebone House, 129 -137
Marylebone Road, NW1.
Following meetings with a number of our neighbours in recent weeks, this first stage of consultation
is taking place ‘at-a-distance’ in light of government guidelines around social distancing. Using a
range of different feedback tools, we are committed to engaging widely and making sure everyone
has an opportunity to have their say in a way that suits them.
You can provide your feedback on the information set out in these boards by clicking on the
‘Feedback Form’ on the ‘Have Your Say’ section on our website. You can also provide your feedback
via post. Alternatively, if you would like to arrange a virtual presentation with a member of the project
INTRODUCTION team, please contact us at marylebonehouse@kandaconsulting.co.uk
We will then take the time to reflect upon the feedback prior to sharing more detailed proposals in
late summer and submitting a planning application to Westminster City Council.MEET THE TEAM MARYLEBONE

HOUSE
The site today
The existing buildings are tired, at
the end of their commercial life and
in urgent need of investment. The
buildings suffer from low levels of
natural light, poor energy performance
and there is a servicing road through
the site which is unusable.

The previous owner submitted a
planning application to redevelop the
site. As part of Beltane’s commitment
to working closely with the local
community and develop sensitive

Westminster City Council. As part of
our commitment to working closely
with the local community to develop
sensitive plans, we have withdrawn
this application. Compared to this
application, our early thinking for the
site is to undertake a more sustainable

Knox Street and Wyndham StreetSCALE MARYLEBONE
HOUSE
We recognise and understand that the
application submitted by the previous
owner of the site was contentious.
By retaining the existing 1960s
structure, nearly all areas of our
proposals would be significantly
smaller than the previous application.
KEY
By adding two set-back storeys to
the 1960s building, we are keen to
develop a more successful transition
across the site as it steps down
towards the residential properties of
Knox Street, Wyndham Street and the
Portman Estate Conservation Area. We

believe this outcome will be improved Existing Massing
further by the introduction of new
accommodation to replace the former
car park, creating a development of

a buffer to the existing neighbouring Currently Proposed Massing – Marylebone Road
homes.
In terms of the 1930s building, our
idea is for an extension to the roof
to accommodate additional plant
equipment (see blue outline).
