Two Fifty One

Two Fifty One is strategically located at the northern gateway to the Elephant & Castle. How the 40-storey tower is perceived changes depending on the location from where it is viewed, a device helped by its sculptural top and the changing facade character of the two main facades of stone and a third end elevation which is glazed. On approach and at street level, the building has an intimate feeling and a new green space is created. Adjacent to the tower is a seven-storey building which provides employment space and helps to frame a new public green space and route into the campus of neighbouring London South Bank University.
