Work will involve knocking down two buildings at 2-3 Finsbury Avenue designed by British architect Peter Foggo for Arup in the 1980s which were granted immunity from listing. At one point Arup was tasked with designing a replacement for its own building, with a 32-storey tower that won planning in 2018 - before 3XN was brought in.
