Shell has appointed Foster & Partners, the leading architect, to consider an ambitious redevelopment of its headquarters, the Shell Centre, on London’s South Bank next to the London Eye.
The oil giant, which is keen to make the best use of any surplus space on the 5.5-acre site, does not want to demolish the building but it is thought that one option could be the construction of an iconic high-rise tower. Any design, however, would need to be acceptable to London’s Mayor, Ken Livingstone, and local planners.
CB Richard Ellis, the world’s biggest commercial property consultant, and DP9, the planning consultancy, are also advising on the plans. Developers including Land Securities are understood to have approached Shell about getting involved with the project. The new scheme could span millions of square feet.

The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
