Merlin Entertainments, the company behind leisure attractions including Alton Towers, Legoland and the Peppa Pig theme park, has taken more space at the Arbor building at Native Land’s Bankside Yards scheme, SE1.
EG revealed last year that the company had struck a deal to move to the building, taking 13,500 sq ft on the 16th floor.
It has now secured half of the 17th floor, citing “increased office attendance” and taking its occupation to 18,500 sq ft. The building is now over 75% let.
Alasdair Nicholls, chief executive of Native Land, said: “Merlin Entertainments’ decision to expand its occupational footprint at Arbor is an outstanding endorsement of the quality of the environment that Native Land is developing at Bankside Yards.”
Ingleby Trice and Knight Frank are leasing agents for Arbor. JLL acted for Merlin.
