Likely also called the Alfred Place Project, bulding area consisted of 209-226 Tottenham Court Road and 1-17 Alfred Place.

The Tobacco Dock Shopping Village and Restoration Project, 1985-1990, comprised the restoration and conservation of a significant Grade 1 listed dockside building located on Pennington Street, Wapping. The building, dating from 1806, represented part of the original early 19th century expansion of London docks.

The building had six bays, each spanning 54 feet with a clearance height of 12 feet 6 inches. As a structure it represented a unique system of prefabricated internal supports which could be interlinked. The first part of the project was the restoration of the original building fabric, involving careful repair and the replacement of missing sections of the warehouse structure with fragments from adjoining buildings that were threatened with destruction. The second phase involved inserting shopping and entertainment facilities into the restored historic fabric, including the rebuilding of the original dockside. Shops were organised around two main courts on two floors. The removal of the roof and industrial skin floor provided natural light and ventilation to the vaults below.

The Three Quays development occupied a historic riverside location on the River Thames in London where three separate trading quays – Galley Quay, Chester Quay and Brewers Quay – once stood. In 1998 detailed planning consent was obtained for the development of a 233 bedroom hotel designed by Terry Farrell and Partners, replacing the existing vacant office building on the site. Within walking distance of the major financial institutions of the City of London, adjoining the western boundary of the Tower of London and within the Tower Conservation Area, this was both a prominent and sensitive site.

Planning permission allowed for a full-service hotel with associated conference and leisure facilities on the basement, ground, first and nine upper floors. Retail and restaurant units were planned at ground level opening out to a River Plaza.

Extension to The Deep aquarium, containing offices, storage, and retail facilities. Terry Farrell and Partners were asked to deliver the concept design and supervise local architects.

Throughout the course of the project there appears to have been professional relationship difficulties between the local architect contractors, councillors, Terry Farrell Partnership and The Deep management. This involved divergent views on how Terry Farrell Partnership felt the original concept design was being executed in practice. The project may have continued without the involvement of the Terry Farrell Partnership.

Thameslink 2000, Master Plan. Thameslink 2000/British Rail. Infrastructure design and Blackfriars Bridge Station Study. 1991-1993.

Thameslink 2000 formed a crucial part of a scheme to improve the whole rail network throughout the country and enable trains from Europe to travel directly to the north of England without stopping at a London terminus. The commission involved the presentation of evidence for the parliamentary bill, and the preparation of masterplans for major stations along the route. There were also proposals for development in several central London locations, and for urban design, planning and architectural responses to the environmental impact of British Rail’s engineering works. In the final masterplan, work at Blackfriars consisted of the provision of a new through-station across the river Thames, with platform access from both riverbanks.

Thameslink 2000, was a £6 billion project in south-east England to upgrade and expand the Thameslink rail network to provide new and longer trains between a wider range of stations to the north and to the south of London. The development facilitated new cross-London journeys, so that passengers would no longer have to change trains in London. Work included platform lengthening, station remodelling, new railway infrastructure, and new rolling stock. The project was originally proposed in 1991 following the successful introduction of the initial Thameslink service in 1988.

In addition to the Thameslink 2000 Masterplan project (see TF.2.2.1.TLLB), Terry Farrell & Partners also redesigned London Bridge Station. These files relate to this separate London Bridge Station project.

Thames Water Authority was one of the largest water authorities in the world, dealing with both water supply and sewage treatment. Besides all the tank and plant accommodation, space was needed for laboratories, cafeterias, offices, changing facilities, various workshops, chemical stores, generators and general stores. Thames Water Authority's special knowledge and expertise was commercially available, giving rise to large numbers of visitors who come from all over the world to view the methods and machinery. This required the Thames Water Authority development project to include the unusual demand for a visitors' centre in its brief.

In the final design, the building arrangement aimed to combine the visitors' centre with the everyday operations of the water treatment plant. Visitor presence was included at the centre of the operations through a central visitor entrance way leading to a vaulted space which ran the full width of the building. This space allowed access at either end to the rest of the treatment works and the treatment machinery. Meanwhile the H-shaped design of the building, with the treatment works focussed in the two arms of the H shape, meant that operations could be carried out unhindered by the presence of visitors.

Regeneration masterplan for Swiss Cottage, an area in the London Borough of Camden. The plan focused on the compact site of the old Swiss Cottage leisure centre next to the Swiss Cottage Library, a grade II listed structure, both designed by Sir Basil Spence. It comprised of a leisure centre, social housing, a doctor's surgery and Hampstead Theatre.
The masterplan focused on improving pedestrian access and visual linkages between key roads in the area, whilst retaining green spaces and mature trees. It also planned a shared entrance for the library and leisure centre with connected retail development. There was also a preference for greater physical and visual transparency with open space and the leisure centre for improved community connection.

Archive material has 2 distinct phases to this project: 1999-2001 and 2004. Material dated from 2004 material has project code SWIS2 and focuses on residential and leisure centre developments.

South Kensington Underground Station and Mixed-use Development, South Kensington, London. 1991-1994 with a public exhibition in1993.

This design scheme addressed the unappealing South Kensington underground station and pedestrian links. Terry Farrell & Company proposed a mixed-use redevelopment of the station, placing the ticket hall above the platforms and providing additional residential, commercial and retail accommodation. Plans to revamp South Kensington were revamped in 2003.

South Bank Arts Centre, South Bank, London. 1985-1990, with a Public exhibition in 1989.

In 1985 Terry Farrell & Partners was appointed to produce a master plan for the South Bank Arts Centre. At the time the South Bank had grown to become Europe's largest arts and entertainment centre, but essentially operated as a number of internalised spaces connected by an unsatisfactory system of upper-level walkways. The master plan took the Royal Festival Hall and National Theatre as its focal points, and provided new and replacement arts venues organised around a network of pedestrian routes at ground level, with parking and servicing arranged so as to free most of the site for pedestrians. The master plan suggested the involvement of different architects, artists, landscape designers and craftspeople to ensure architectural diversity. The addition of shops, restaurants and office space aimed to add the urban colour and activity which Sir Terry Farrell felt was lacking in the existing single-user complex. The plan also focussed on the improvement of waterside and public spaces as an asset to the South Bank.
