The Campus

The Bower

The Bower, a vibrant Old Street campus, offers 313,000 sq ft of modern office space across three buildings, alongside 21,000 sq ft of F&B and retail throughout the public realm.


The Campus forms a key part of Old Street, with its three main buildings – The Tower, The Warehouse, and The Studio – offering contemporary workspaces designed to encourage creativity and boost productivity.

The development includes an inviting public realm with green spaces, complete with landscaped outdoor areas for relaxation and community gatherings. A curated selection of retail options, including eateries and shops, complements The Campus, serving the needs of both occupants and visitors.

The spacious reception makes an immediate impression with its double-height design. The space thoughtfully integrates the building’s original architectural elements.

Adjacent to this is The Hub, a versatile area designed for spontaneous collaborations or as an alternative work environment away from traditional desks.

With a wide range of retailers, The Bower has something for everyone. Each building houses a variety of food and beverage options that contribute to the vibrant atmosphere on The Campus.

The Bower benefits from over an acre of landscaped outside space including public art, outdoor eating, as well as an internal communal area, The Hub, where occupiers can work, socialise, and relax.

The public realm is further improved by TFL’s transformation of the Old Street roundabout into a more pedestrian and cycle-friendly environment, creating new public space.

The Tower and The Warehouse are accessed via the main reception with its impressive double-height space and welcoming front of house team. Guests and visitors are welcomed warmly with a smooth and pleasant ‘street to seat’ experience.
