Getjar begins work on concrete frame

Mace has begun work on a 拢140m scheme to turn the former home of Cancer Research UK into a new building for the London School of Economics.

Hertfordshire contractor Getjar has begun work on the concrete frame of the building after McGee completed demolition work on the site at 44 Lincoln鈥檚 Inn Fields in Holborn.

The building will be known as The Marshall 好色先生TV - after hedge fund manager Paul Marshall, who is worth an estimated 拢300m. Marshall gave 拢30m - the university鈥檚 largest private donation 鈥� back in 2015 for the creation of the Marshall Institute for Philanthropy and Social Entrepreneurship.

The scheme, designed by Irish practice Grafton, who beat a star-studded shortlist including David Chipperfield and Herzog & de Meuron, is due to finish in 2021.
