Two outdoor terraces will flank the restaurant, offering unparalleled views of the cityscape. Award-winning architects Cetra Ruddy will design the restaurant’s 13,423-square-foot (1,247-square-meter) space, which will have direct access via two scenic elevators from a dedicated entrance on Bishopsgate. The space will offer brunch, lunch and dinner and include outdoor dining, a bar and lounge, and premier event space.
