Joint property agents Knight Frank and Fletcher Morgan advised the landlord in the lettings to solicitors Redkite, property lawyers Simply Conveyancing and cyber security specialist Bridewell Consulting.
The nine storey building, which extends to nearly 88,000 sq ft, is owned by a private fund advised by Floreat, an independent investment group. The building saw a recent refurbishment programme which included new communal meeting rooms and refurbished offices.
