Cardinal Place, Office and retail complex in Victoria Street, London, England
Cardinal Place is a modern office and retail complex along Victoria Street in Westminster, comprising multiple interconnected structures with glass exterior elements. The development integrates commercial spaces, shops, and public areas within its architectural framework.
The complex opened in 2005 as a major development project that reshaped the Victoria area's commercial character. Its construction marked a significant moment in Westminster's urban transformation during the early 2000s.
The rooftop space serves as a gathering place where local events and temporary art displays create moments of connection for people working and visiting in the area. This elevated space offers a different perspective on the district's energy.
The complex sits in a central location within Westminster with straightforward pedestrian access and good connection to local transport links. Much of the space serves commercial purposes, though public areas can be accessed during regular business hours.
The buildings sit on rubber shock absorbers that dampen the vibrations from the underground trains running beneath the complex. This engineering solution allows the structure to remain stable despite the constant movement passing below.
