Mitsui Fudosan UK and Stanhope have fully let 300,000 sq ft of offices at One Angel Court, EC2.
A total of 21 tenants have signed for the 24-storey mixed-use development next to the Bank of England. Eight have relocated from West End offices and three have made One Angel Court their first central London office.
Businesses from a range of sectors – including cyber security, healthcare, blockchain technology, oil and gas and business services – have agreed leases at the tower.
One Angel Court, which replaced a 1970s tower, offers roof terraces and panoramic views from its “sky” and “garden” floors, and turns translucent in the daylight.
Eiichiro Onozawa, managing director of Mitsui Fudosan UK, said: “The City has traditionally been dominated by banking and finance businesses but new, innovative developments – featuring a range of modern amenities, communal spaces and varied restaurants – such as One Angel Court, appeal to companies across a diverse range of sectors.
“More than half of our tenants have either never had an office in the City or never had an office in central London, which speaks volumes about the attractiveness of One Angel Court.”
David Camp, chief executive of Stanhope, added: “With working habits having changed a great deal in recent years, it was crucial that we complemented the top quality office accommodation the development provides with a varied leisure offer, which has clearly hit the right note with employers who know how important an attractive and efficient workplace is to attracting – and retaining – the best people.”
BH2, Cushman & Wakefield and JLL advised Mitsui Fudosan and Stanhope.
