Judging by the render, it seems as if they plan on incorporating Harbour Place and the other building connected to it with the tower:

Well they're already selling space on the Baker Street Properties site, so I doubt it.

good looking building. but only 14000m2? it looks bigger than that

Do note that it says 14 000m2 of offices. There could very well be additional components that aren't included in that figure. Remember that the description is from a property website, so it could only address the component that they're actually selling.

Nope, that's Culemborg Quarter, which will be situated to the left of the render, out of the picture. Exciting stuff!

The billboard up on site isn't very informative. It just has a huge render, the Baker Street Properties website address, and information regarding office space and parking.

I wonder who else is involved.

Same with Edge. Just a number and their website.

Baker Street are not involved beyond being brokers, site is privately owned (same party whon owns the front buildings in The Boulevard) and the current design is by shk although quite a few architects have had a stab at it
