The next major phase of Pure DC's £1bn+ digital infrastructure development is now underway at Brent Cross. 🏗️
Glencar has commenced piling works for the West Shell of Pure Data Centres’ 70MW LON01B2 facility, marking the start of the final major build phase at its Brent Cross campus in North London.
It’s a project of significant scale.
LON01B2 will add more than 23,000 sq m to the development and, once complete, take the campus to 90MW total capacity - providing next-generation infrastructure capable of supporting high-density AI inference and cloud workloads.
Glencar is delivering the West Cold Shell, encompassing piling and foundations, underground services, structural frame, concrete and slab works, stair cores, envelope and roofing.
Delivery is taking place within a live operational data centre campus, with multiple construction and fit-out activities progressing simultaneously - requiring detailed logistics, sequencing and coordination between our team, Pure DC and the wider project team.
And scale isn’t the only notable feature.
🌿 Once complete, B2 will be wrapped by one of the world’s largest living walls, incorporating more than 750,000 plants to support biodiversity and help reduce noise and air pollution adjacent to Brent Reservoir’s Site of Special Scientific Interest.
With the first piles now in the ground, the structure is the next major element of this significant development to begin taking shape.
