Law firm Burness Paull has signed for 14,814 sq ft at BAM TCP Atlantic Square’s 2 Atlantic Square in Glasgow’s financial services district.
The legal firm follows engineering and project management consultancy Atkins, which last year became the first occupier at the 96,650 sq ft building.
“After a two-year search across the city we believe we have found the ideal home at 2 Atlantic Square,” said Burness Paull managing partner Tamar Tammes. “Our goal was to find a new base for our colleagues in Glasgow that was not only tailored to our new hybrid working principles, but also met the highest standard of environmental credentials. It is an impressive building in an area undergoing rapid transformation into the heart of Glasgow’s business district.”
Dougie Peters, managing director at BAM Properties, added: “This letting to one of Scotland’s most prestigious legal firms is a reflection of the stature of the accommodation, for which there is continuing market interest.
“It shows that there remains a strong future for commercial office space in Glasgow and the quality of the accommodation forms part of occupiers’ approach to attracting and retaining talent.”
The £150m, grade-A Atlantic Square development totals 300,000 sq ft across three buildings.
Galbraith represented Burness Paull; BAM TCP was represented by CBRE, JLL and Ryden.
