The City of London Corporation has approved the redevelopment of two office buildings between the future Museum of London and the Barbican to create a new hotel. The buildings at 1-8 Long Lane will be combined into a 9-storey, 128-room hotel, with 10% provision for disabled access, contributing to future visitor demands. Retail spaces, urban greening and public art installations will form part of the development.
