This project includes for the replacement of the existing buildings on the BHC site at Alexander Pallis Street, Nicosia, with a modern new office, new Residence and Gatehouse and covered carparking that will be constructed in the existing compound.

The design will comply with all local regulations and UK regulations where appropriate and will showcase the best of British design, incorporating as many energy saving and environmentally responsible features as practicable.

All of the existing buildings will need to be demolished to make way for the new buildings, with the exception of the EAC switchgear room. The works will need to be phased to retain the existing FCDO functions during the works with a number of buildings being retained temporarily for decant space.

A new entrance to the southern boundary of the site has been proposed, with an associated new build Gatehouse providing a much improved ‘front’ to the BHC. Car parking is retained in a separate and distinct area, in order that this does not encroach on the combined garden / function spaces for the BHC and Residence. Prior to the completion of the project the grounds will be re landscaped, to their previous beautifully kept status.
