George’s design lead role for Adamson Associates was to complete the RIBA Stage F scheme for the upper zone of the Canary Wharf Crossrail development including the timber roof with retail and leisure facilities below. He also worked in collaboration with the building client, Canary Wharf Contractors, on the sub-contractor procurement stage. The scheme has two zones: Canary Wharf Crossrail station which is set twenty five metres below the dock water level; and a five storey retail and leisure facility over-sailed by a timber roof structure. The roof is one of the largest in the world at 320m long and up to 35m wide. Canary Wharf Crossrail is a major addition to the area. When the station is open in 2018 it will support a doubling of the Estate working population to 200,000 by 2025. Designed by Architects Foster + Partners and Adamson Associates with Arup as consulting engineers, the development achieves high quality construction and finishes using specialists from across Europe.
