GVA Grimley completes Birmingham let
THE BIRMINGHAM office of GVA Grimley has completed a £90,000 letting in the city centre on behalf of Shatto Holdings.
Perceptive Informatics, which provides eClinical solutions, has taken a five-year lease of the eighth floor of Centre City. The 7,500 sq ft space, let at £12.50 per sq ft, is with an undisclosed rent-free period.
Nigel Knighton, of PSK Knighton, which represented the new occupier, said: “The lease on premises in Brindleyplace was due to expire and Perceptive Informatics’ parent company, PAREXEL International, wanted to find a more appropriate space for its technology business in Birmingham.
“Centre City was the ideal solution, meeting our criteria for specification and location, whilst offering considerable rent savings.”
Centre City is a 21-storey Grade A office space, prominently situated on the corner of Hill Street and Smallbrook Queensway in Birmingham city centre.
Features include a double height reception foyer and central atrium with wall climbing lifts, air conditioning, column free space and an in-house coffee shop.
George Jennings, associate director with the office agency team at GVA Grimley, said: “Centre City offers the winning combination of great space at an unrivalled price in a prominent location.
“With New Street Station a two minute walk away, immediate access to bus routes and the Midlands motorway network, occupiers couldn’t be better connected. Other benefits include the closeness to Bullring, The Mailbox and the central business district.”
The site also benefits from 24-hour on-site, a comprehensive CCTV system and secure on-site parking.
“Centre City offers Grade A space and the remaining 40,000 sq ft is generating plenty of positive interest,” added Mr Jennings.
