What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought allowances for disturbance caused by adjacent demolition and reconstruction works at 1-2 Broadgate and 1-14 Liverpool Street, and an additional 2.5% allowance for loss of amenity to the Broadgate Circle public space. The tribunal found that the most disruptive demolition works had already been completed before the material date (13 January 2023), and the remaining works (bulk excavation and superstructure) would be largely mitigated by the building's BREEAM outstanding specification. The tribunal dismissed the appeals, finding the Valuation Officer's existing allowances to be reasonable and rejecting both the increased disturbance allowances and the loss of amenity claim.
