Bureau has advised on the acquisition of Level 36 (8,600 sq ft) at 8 Bishopsgate on behalf of investment banking group BancTrust & Co.
8 Bishopsgate is a brand new 50-storey tower in the City of London designed by WilkinsonEyre and developed by Stanhope PLC & Mitsubishi Estate Co.,Ltd.
From the first viewing, this building stood out from the crowd due to its outstanding environmental credentials, iconic views and 50,000+ sq ft of amenity space. It really is ‘next level working’ as the marketing suggests. Over 10% of the building is dedicated to amenity, including a 200-seat auditorium, business lounge, café, meeting rooms, restaurant, bar / public terrace, and multiple private terraces.
The building is crowned by The Lookout, a public viewing gallery (free!) and event space on the 50th floor. This was a refreshingly smooth acquisition process, thanks to agents BH2, the team at Stanhope PLC and our client’s legal advisors Kingsley Napley. The fit-out designs for this space are spectacular. We’re excited to see the finished product, which will be delivered by the team at ECHOSPACE and project managed by ARP.
