‘Fully let’ signs go up at city centre office scheme

Real estate consultancy OBI has announced the completion of the phased refurbishment of Lancaster Buildings, on Manchester’s Deansgate, and confirmed the building is fully let.

This follows the expansion of Day Architectural into the newly-refurbished first floor suite of 3,937 sq ft.

OBI acted on behalf of BCL Legal, the landlord of Lancaster Buildings.

BCL Legal occupies the whole of the third floor (7,308 sq ft).

The final transactions completed at Lancaster Buildings were:

  • Northpoint Recruitment, who have taken 1,196 sq ft on the second floor
  • Having moved into 2,537 sq ft on the second floor in January 2018, Day Architectural has expanded its space to 3,937 sq ft
  • Digital agency Indiespring has increased its space from 1,196 sq ft to 2,537 sq ft

The other occupier in Lancaster Buildings is National Housing Federation.

James Batt, managing director, BCL Legal, said: “Having worked with OBI over a number of years it is fantastic to see Lancaster Buildings transformed and fully let.

“We welcome Northpoint Recruitment into the building and it’s hugely positive that our existing occupiers have been able to expand their space within the building.”

Debbie Meredith, transactions and asset management, OBI, said: “It has been great to work with BCL Legal on the leasing, design and refurbishment of Lancaster Buildings and it is good to see customers being able to expand easily.

“It is positive to have the building fully let following our phased refurbishment of the building.”

OBI advised BCL Legal on the original acquisition, leasing, the interior design and project management of the fit out of the building.
