Tower 42

From a 42 storey tower, a Grade II-listed former London HQ for The Bank of Scotland, a Grade I-listed former banking hall and newer purpose built office accommodation, the Tower 42 Estate caters to a wide variety of modern business requirements.

Designed by acclaimed architect Richard Seifert, Tower 42 was opened by Queen Elizabeth II in 1981 and was named as one of her favourite buildings during the Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

Nestled within the 2.4-acre Estate, you'll find an assortment of amenities.

Among the current occupants are well-known names such as Jason Atherton’s restaurant City Social, along with Pizza Pilgrims, Rosslyn Coffee, Joe & the Juice, Scarpetta, Ted’s Grooming Room, and M&S Simply Food, along with Eat Activ for those looking for a delicious healthy option.

As part of our commitment to enriching the lives of Londoners, the Tower 42 screen, which sits on the top three floors of the tower, is used all year round to present still images and animations for charitable causes and topical dates in the calendar and is made up of 5,905 bespoke RGB pixels.

We are proud to host transformative public works, most notably William Kentridge’s Shadow Quartet. These monumental bronzes morph as you move, offering a profound exploration of identity and motion.

Complementing this is Wendy Fisher’s Untitled [Grazing Goats & Sheep], featuring translucent resin creatures that reimagine pastoral life within an urban setting. Together, these pieces turn the Estate into a living gallery, inviting continuous discovery for every visitor.
