Quick facts General information, Status ...

Proposed in 1983, designed by the architects Fitzroy Robinson & Partners, and built in 1991–92,[2] the building was the headquarters of legal firm Clifford Chance before it moved to Canary Wharf.[3] It was extensively redeveloped by Helical Bar in 2010, in conjunction with architects Morey Smith. The refurbishment included two large new reception and lobby areas, a cycle store for 220 bicycles with shower and changing facilities and, on the first floor, a new business lounge and café linking the two parts of the building.[4]

In 2013, 200 Aldersgate was purchased by AshbyCapital, a real estate investment advisory firm, which sold the property to Samsung SRA in 2018.[5][6]

200 Aldersgate is recognisable by the neon artworks in its front windows. Measuring 2.5m in diameter, 'Revolution – in two parts' by Rob and Nick Carter, was commissioned by 200 Aldersgate in 2010.[7]

200 Aldersgate is also known as one of three landmarks forming Stand Up To Cancer's London 3 Peaks Challenge. In 2014, 400 participants in the first ever challenge scaled The Gherkin and Heron Tower, before abseiling 56 metres down the outside of 200 Aldersgate.[8]
