You don't think it's vaguely possible that with TfL having signed a
sale/leaseback agreement that the new owner might be refurbishing them
as offices?

Quite possibly now, but that certainly wasn't the plan when I toured
the building.

That was then, this is now.

And if it's now a sale and leaseback deal, any refurbishment would
presumably be up to TfL.

As the purpose of sale and leaseback is to generate cashflow for the
tenant (and provide a home for spare cash for the new owner), I'd expect
the refurbishment to be normally part of the contribution of the latter.
