Savills, on behalf of Wittington Investments (Properties) Limited, has completed a new office letting at Forty Princess Street in Manchester.
Architectural design company, PRP Group LLP, will be the first office tenant to move into the building and will occupy Unit 2.0 extending to 2,530 sq ft for a term of 10 years.
Forty has recently undergone significant refurbishment and now offers a substantial business lounge reception, excellent end of journey amenity and office suites ranging in size between 600 sq ft and 5,300 sq ft. There is currently 51,123 sq ft available over 10 levels. The offering includes conventional office space and fully fitted solutions.
Located in the heart of Manchester’s vibrant village quarter, the Grade II listed building occupies a prominent position, and benefits from close proximity to Manchester Art Gallery, Kimpton Clocktower Hotel, The Palace Theatre, and a plethora of bars and restaurants.
Daniel Barnes, director, office agency, Manchester Savills, comments: “PRP are a great fit for Forty Princess Street. This exceptional office building provides high-quality space with great connectivity. The building offers a range of suites to cater for a variety of requirements and we have a good level of interest given the flexibility across the building and the ability to deliver fully fitted solutions.”
Alister Weir, partner at PRP Group LLP, says: “We are delighted to finally be moving into Forty Princess Street having completed our studio fit out. The existing structure and historic character led us to create an open plan space which maximised the natural light and heritage features. Our team are thrilled with the move to this new location in central Manchester and are enjoying all the additional communal facilities that Forty Princess Street has to offer.”
OBI acted on behalf of PRP. Andrew Cowell, OBI, adds: “It has been great working with PRP on their relocation to Forty Princess Street. From the outset PRP were always focussed on finding space in a fully restored heritage asset with good sustainability credentials and high amenity and in Forty Princess Street that is perfectly aligned to their requirement for their new Manchester office.”
