Partners Group and Marick Real Estate will initiate construction for the development early next year, with completion estimated to be in the first three months of 2018.

The building will be stand at 14 storeys-high and provide 245,000ft² of commercial space.

Grade A office space for the development will have design features such as a series of tiered roof gardens.

Partners Group Private Real Estate vice-president Stuart Keith said: "The recent rebound in the UK economy has created a significant supply-demand imbalance in the City of London in terms of Grade A office space, with vacancy levels close to historic lows and rents steadily climbing.

"80 Fenchurch will be perfectly placed in terms of location, timing and quality of build to capitalise on this attractive market opportunity."
