Scope and content
The original building for this project had many uses and began as a conglomeration of buildings dating to the 1920’s, when it originally used for the Palmer Tyre Company. It had also been a factory for building components used in Britain's famous landmark spitfire aircrafts. This project by Terry Farrell and Partners incorporated the conversion of an office building ‘The Wallis Building,’ to 21 self-contained flats 65 Penfold Street, St John’s Wood, London. and the project was sometimes known as the ‘Spitfire Works,’ referencing its commercial history.
