                      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.

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.

Previous planning

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

application has now been withdrawn
from planning.

 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 sensitive plans, we have withdrawn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
 less intrusive development by
 retaining the majority of the existing
 Marylebone House and structure of
 the 1960s extension.

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

accommodation to replace the former

In terms of the 1930s building, our
idea is for an extension to the roof

                 We are conducting studies into the
                 materiality of the current building and
                 surrounding streets to ensure our
                 proposals fit in sensitively with the local
                 area.

                 Our initial thinking is to re-clad the 1960s
                 building building using solid materials,
                 such as brick, to ensure the building sits
                 more harmoniously in its context.

Thank you for taking the time to look through our early plans for the
                      redevelopment of Marylebone House.

                      We hope you found this virtual exhibition informative and useful. We would appreciate it if you could
                      fill in our feedback form, either online or by post. Your thoughts and feedback will be very helpful as
                      we develop more detailed plans over the next few months.

                      This is the first step in our consultation process, and we hope to have many more conversations over

MARYLEBONE HOUSE      the next few months before we prepare our detailed designs to share with you for feedback, ahead of
                      a planning submission to Westminster City Council.

 Virtual Exhibition   In the meantime, we are keen to speak to as many people as possible in the local area. If you have any
                      questions, or would like to organise a more detailed conversation about these plans, please do get in
                      touch with the project team on the details below:
