21 September 2026 marked a major milestone for the extension project, as we officially broke ground with a special ceremony (‘Ji chin sai’) on site – a time-honoured Japanese tradition.

We were delighted to welcome more than 100 guests, including representatives from local community groups, Camden Council and businesses based in the King’s Cross Knowledge Quarter.

Relive the highlights from the ceremony below.
