Pain Estates Plc own the freehold of 65 Gresham Street, in the City of London, an 8 storey office building (including basement), built circa 1935 and last refurbished in 2000. This Grade 2 Listed building has a steel structure, clay hollow­pot slabs, solid brick party walls, painted steel windows and external thin stone cladding to the brickwork. The services are relatively basic (central heating and some individual a/c units), and the 2 passenger lifts were renewed as part of the last refurbishment. Youens Finance Ltd hold the Head Lease of the building, granted in 2001, for a period of 15 years, on FRI basis. They occupy the lower 6 floors and sublet the 5th and 6th floors on a 10 year internal repairing lease to a music recording studio. Pain Estates have received an application from Youens for approval of alterations in respect of refurbishment works to include: the demolition of the chimney breast from the 5th and 6th floors to increase floor space; the removal of the fire lobby to the first floor to allow direct access to their reception area from the lifts; the creation of a ramp from the street to the entrance hall to enable their disabled clients and Order code: 81107853 Completed Deadline: January 06 16:51 Order total: $89.60 Compensation $11.20 / Page Earnings: $89.60 Payment status: Paid Pages: 8, Double spaced Sources: 9 Order type: Essay Subject: Architecture Academic level: Not specified Style: Harvard Language: English (U.K.) T FAQ’s Can I be additionally compensated if the order is completed earlier than requested?

visitors to access the premises. Youens have also requested that the landlord provides an accessible toilet in the common parts for their visitors and other users. M. Grinfeld ­ Space Strategies and Legislation 2013� 2014 25 On receipt of the application, Pain decide to serve an Interim Schedule of Dilapidations on Youens. The last time any works of maintenance to the building were carried out was in 2005, and internal repairs and decorations have not been carried out since that time either . In preparing the drawings and specification to accompany the application for approval of alterations, some exploratory opening up of the chimney to be demolished has been carried out and, to the dismay of all concerned, it was found that the flue was lined with asbestos which was friable and powdery. No record of the presence of asbestos in this area was found in the existing Asbestos Register, and the sub­tenants occupying the 2 floors have been using the flue for their ventilation system. The fact that there were high profile cases of death caused by asbestos, surrounded by similar circumstances (Mickey Most and Malcolm Mac Laren) has caused the subtenants to take legal advice on the matter.
