Purpose
To seek community views on the Schedule 17 Planning Consent design of the
replacement London Underground substation and vent shaft building.
This is before submission of the application to the London Borough of Camden.

Existing building
The existing London Underground Substation
and Vent shaft building is located on the
corner of Melton Street and Drummond Street.
The building provides power for the Northern
Line trains and vents the platforms below.
The location of the HS2 station at Euston
requires the demolition and replacement of
the existing building.

Design considerationsThe location and design of the building are informed by:
• Surrounding streetscape and nearby architecture
• London Underground operational needs
• Location of tube tunnels
• Space planning for internal equipment
• Incorporation of access door, windows and ventilation louvres
• Need for parking for maintenance vehicles
• General maintenance needs
Green walls and active frontages (eg. retail shop) within the building design are not consistent with the
considerations above

Future opportunities
Building design offers flexibility for future use of adjacent
land to the east.
Adjacent land is not part of the application to Camden
Council.
Future uses will be considered at a later date and we
welcome feedback.

Form
• A cube shape, 4 levels in height
• Geometries will be adapted to generatevariations in scale and detail across thefacade
Function
• A vital piece of infrastructure which enablesLondon Underground to function
• Operation requirements driven by LondonUnderground needs
Materiality
• Exploring glazed tiles, which have been used inLondon Underground station design. As a material itis robust, distinctive and low maintenance
• Material gives flexibility of form and perforationwhich can be exploited to integrate openings andcreate a dynamic facade arrangement and enableventilation
• Opportunities for lighting to add visual interest atnight
