Bruntwood has appointed the joint agency team of CBRE and Knight Frank on its City House redevelopment above Leeds City Train Station.
Bruntwood’s investment into City House is underway, with an expected completion date of May 2017. The building will offer a total 119,210 sq ft of flexible space designed with contemporary business in mind, with full floors available of 9,630 sq ft.
The redevelopment of City House is crucial to the long-term regeneration of the gateway to Leeds. Bruntwood will continue to work closely with Network Rail on the redevelopment of Leeds train station so that, in the future, City House can be linked to the train station with direct access onto the concourse.
Craig Burrow, director at Bruntwood, said: “With work now underway at City House we were keen to secure a strong agency team who could work with us to communicate our vision to future occupiers. It is an incredibly exciting project and we are delighted to welcome our agents on board.”
Alex Hailey, Associate Director of Office Agency at CBRE Leeds, said: “Bruntwood’s wider vision for the future of workspace is being brought to life in one of the city’s most prominent buildings and we anticipate high levels of interest from a diverse occupier mix.”
Eamon Fox, Partner at Knight Frank, said; “City House is a once in a generation development in Leeds, and will become an exemplary working environment for our target occupiers. Our workplace is central to most of our lives; City House embraces the changing world of workplace and technology to deliver offices and workspace to meet the needs of business today and into the future.”
