A decision on a controversial 48-storey office tower planned for a site beside the Gherkin has been postponed until later this year.
The City of London was expected to give the Stiff & Trevillion-designed tower the green light today but its planning committee has deferred the application until a site visit by planning committee members later in the year.
It is expected to come back to the committee by the end of September at the latest.
The skinny 197m tower could also be neighboured by the Tulip, designed by Foster & Partners, if an appeal for that 305m tower succeeds. A decision on this is expected in the summer.

The Stiff & Trevillion scheme would replace Bury House, a seven-storey 1970s stone and glass office building at 31 Bury Street if councillors follow their planning officer’s recommendation and approve the scheme tomorrow.
The client is Bentall Green Oak and Thornton Tomasetti is structural engineer, with Arup on facades. Mace is construction consultant, RLB is QS with Hoare Lee, Sweco and Bowles Wyer also on the project team.

The proposal is for a stepped building containing 25,460sq m of offices above a ground level of retail and a community space, plus a semi-public arcade through the building and some landscaped open space. The applicant said smaller floorplates were an unmet demand in this part of the Square Mile.
