100,000 sq ft office scheme launches in Bristol
A major new scheme has been launched in Bristol by Skelton Group Investments.
JLL is acting in conjunction with Knight Frank to bring EMBARQ to market, which will offer between 3,000 and 60,000 sq ft of open-plan workspace, on-site amenities, full height internal atrium, public realm, end-of-journey facilities and sustainability at its core.
Prominently positioned at Redcliff Quay, EMBARQ is a 100,000 sq ft office building overlooking the Floating Harbour, offering views across the city towards Bristol Bridge, King Street and Castle Park.
The building has been designed by Bristol-based architects AWW, alongside building services consultants Method.
Skelton Group Investments, supported by project managers and cost consultants Quantem, has appointed Estilo Interiors as the main contractor to deliver the scheme within the next 13 months.
Simon Keefe, director of Skelton Group said: “Since acquiring Redcliff Quay in April last year we have been busy developing the design and specification for this exciting project to create high quality office space with a focus on environmental performance, in the heart of Bristol city centre on the floating harbour.
“The building has excellent fundamentals for success. With the support of our project team and contractor Estilo we look forward to delivering exceptional office space for Bristol office occupiers who are making the flight to quality. Our leasing agents JLL and Knight Frank are already reporting early interest which is encouraging.”
Hannah Waterhouse, office agency director at JLL said: “EMBARQ represents a glimpse into the future of property development, where preserving existing structures to retain the embedded carbon whilst reducing operational carbon footprint are key to meeting modern office demands.
“We’re proud of the role we’ve played launching the scheme, providing Bristol businesses with the workspaces they need to thrive.”
