STOCKHOLM, Feb. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Skanska has signed a contract with British Land and GIC, as part of the Broadgate joint venture, to deliver the full construction and mechanical & electrical services installation of One Appold Street in London, UK. The contract is worth GBP 273M, about SEK 3.4 billion, which will be included in order bookings for Europe for the first quarter of 2026.
One Appold Street, originally completed in 1986 as part of major development in the City of London, will be transformed into a modern, state-of-the-art and sustainable commercial space. The structural refurbishment involves replacing the current facade, expanding the floorplates in all directions, and adding six new floors to the existing steel frame. This will result in a 14-storey building with approximately 33,500 square meters (360,000 sq ft) of high-quality office space and 4,500 square meters (48,000 sq ft) for gym, restaurant facilities and a roof terrace.

Comparto con muchos la visión de que la universidad, salgo contadas excepciones va muy por detrás del mundo real, con una actitud muy reactiva.
Hace años que salà de ella, aunque continúo ligado, intentando terminar otros estudios que hace tiempo comence (soy un ferviente entusiasta de estar continuamente formándome… aunque solamente sea como intención, y el estar matriculado en alguna asignatura de una 2ª carrera me ayuda en ocasiones a autoexigirme un plus adicional).
Lo penoso es que solamente mantengo relación, muy de vez en cuando, con 2 profesores. Los únicos de los que guardo un buen recuerdo. Y casualidad esta que no son profesionales de la docencia, sino profesionales de la industria privada que están en la docencia por convicción e ilusión personal.
