(ACM candidates) NOT FOUND for No 2. Its sister buildings No 3 and No 4 Capital Quarter are SEVEN STOREYS. OVER 18m: CANNOT TELL - seven commercial storeys at 2.70m clear plus structure and services would plausibly reach 21 to 25m, but that is an inference from the neighbours, not a measured height. NOTE it is an OFFICE building, not residential, which changes which Building Safety Act duties bite

  • (Master ACM building list) REPLACE ALL EXISTING ACM CLADDING PANELS
  • (ACM candidates) MEDIUM that Morgan2Morgan are the masterplan architect: Senior Architectural’s Capital Quarter page gives ‘Architect: Morgan2Morgan Architects’ and ‘Main Contractor: JR Smart’ for Nos 3 and 4 (https://www.seniorarchitectural.co.uk/featured-projects/capital-quarter/). LOW on applying it to No 2 - no source says so. HIGH on 2016 and on it being an office
