The pair have been joined on the shortlist by Skanska for the 27-storey scheme which was given planning nearly a year ago. The scheme is understood to have a construction cost north of 拢150m.

Developer on the scheme is Old Park Lane Management and CORE. It will include around 415,000 sq ft of office space.

The stepped tower will feature five roof terraces and be 128m tall at its highest point.

Consultants on the scheme include QS WT Partnership, structural engineer Waterman and services engineer Hilson Moran.

Multiplex and McAlpine 鈥� along with third bidder Mace 鈥� will find out by the end of the year who has won the 拢350m deal to build the Cube, which has been designed by Renzo Piano and will be built in Paddington.
