Model Lily Cole seeks 'Romeo and Juliet' balcony The model, who graduated with a double first in History of Art from Cambridge University, hopes to add dramatic stained glass windows to the split-level flat in St Pancras Chambers, a Grade I listed building. The building, developed Harry Handelsman of the Manhattan Loft Corporation, was opened in 2010 following a £200m development. Planning documents for Miss Cole state the current storage loft is too "awkward" for her to access and is deemed a "poor use of space." "The existing gallery mezzanine floor is very small and cannot be used for any particular purpose, again a poor use of space," it added. "The proposed design looks to connect these two spaces through a balcony link via the entrance hallway creating a unique "Romeo and Juliette" balcony which will add a sense of theatre and eccentricity that embodies Sir Gilbert Scott's work. The new mezzanine will provide a walk-in wardrobe for the newly formed bedroom where the existing mezzanine is, and a new ensuite located above the existing bathroom on the lower level. A spokeswoman for the Manhattan Loft Corporation said: "We would always address any issue. We have not been made aware of any problems in the building at present. Camden Council will consider the application next month.
