Natalie Bennett, associate director in Hartnell Taylor Cook’s office agency team, said: “The fact that even in these difficult economic times a business is prepared to invest in such an extensive office refurbishment, speaks volumes about the attraction of this rapidly developing location.”
Richard Kidd, director at joint agents GVA, said: “We expect the project to be completed by early September and we are already experiencing strong interest in the space even at this early stage.”
