The Heron, also known as Milton Court, is a 36-storey residential tower in London, United Kingdom. The building was developed by Heron International.[2]
Construction on the building began in 2010 and was completed in September 2013.[3] It is located near the Barbican residential estate within the City of London area, close to Barbican and Moorgate tube stations.
Designed by David Walker Architects,[4] the building was originally planned to be 140 m (460 ft) tall with 44 floors, but after criticism the height was scaled down to 112 m (367 ft) and 36 floors. Structural engineering on the project was completed by WSP Group.
The building's £89 million price tag was funded by Heron International and the City of London Corporation contributing a combined £75.5 million towards the development; the remaining £13.5 million was financed by the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.
The building is part of a wider redevelopment of Milton Court, to include a new teaching and performance centre for the Guildhall School. In the centre of the Heron there is an eight-storey high atrium. The building includes a 225-seat training theatre, a 625-seat concert hall and 284 apartments.
