City Tower
Nature of client end user business
City Tower, or 40 Basinghall Street as it was once known, is one of the last remaining towers, built as part of one of London’s greatest and most ambitious pieces of post-war urban renewal. It is a straightforward and lightweight building that owes its form to being part of the much greater development of London Wall.
Today, it is one of the most recognised and well-established office addresses in Central London, spreading across 19 floors. A comprehensive refurbishment is now complete, offering high quality tower floors of 6,300 sq ft, with dramatic panoramic views of the City.

I’d like to take this opportunity to let you know that your engineer yesterday (Richard) was the epitome of professionalism and a good ambassador for Comfort. Very competent and knowledgeable. Also was pleasing to see someone who navigates themselves around our site (which is large) and does not need ‘hand holding’
