The plans include removing the 1980s roof and original station entrance, and constructing a 10-storey hotel and office block.
Developers say their plans for Liverpool Street Station will ease overcrowding and improve accessibility
Sellar is working with train operator MTR and Network Rail alongside Transport for London and the site's Hyatt Andaz hotel to deliver the plans. It argues this will create better step-free access and improve accessibility across the station, with the installation of seven disabled lifts instead of one that exists currently.
The station's architecture is recognised as some of the finest of its era, especially its glass roof, and has been the subject of a number of past campaigns to stop demolition or redevelopment of the site. "Given Sellar's previous developments of the Paddington Cube and the Shard, this development is likely to overwhelm the listed building," he said.
