CBRE Investment Management (CBRE IM) has completed its back to the frame refurbishment of 10 Brindleyplace in Birmingham.
The 210,000 sq ft building is the first Fitwel accredited office in Birmingham, has an EPC A rating, a BREEAM Excellent rating and is WiredScore Platinum.
It also benefits from Smart Spaces’ smart building platform making it one of the UK’s most technologically advanced office buildings.
Laura Wilson-Brown, UK head of asset management offices, at CBRE Investment Management said: “10 Brindleyplace delivers a new standard of space, to meet the flight to quality demands of the modern occupier. The building provides a high quality, amenity-rich, sustainable workplace, in a market where deliverability of Grade A space is getting ever harder for investors and developers.”
Dan Silverman, co-founder of Spacemade, which will operate 27,000 sq ft of flexible workspace at 10 Brindleyplace, said: “The addition of flexible workspace to 10 Brindleyplace is the perfect addition to such a forward-thinking scheme as this.
“By keeping control and transparency of the flexible workspace, CBRE IM is able to retain the relationship with their customers and fully integrate this crucial amenity into the rest of the building, creating a truly seamless customer experience. With the increased focus on hybrid working, this environment will give members the variety and flexibility required to attract Birmingham’s best talent to the office.”
Lead project manager Paul Stanley, technical director in Workman LLP’s venture team, said: “The complex refurbishment and retrofitting of large office buildings is a growing theme, as investors seek to improve the ESG performance of their holdings and avoid carbon-intensive knockdown-and-rebuild strategies. 10 Brindleyplace is a beacon of best practice for this effort – having transformed two smaller outdated office spaces into an industry-leading workspace that sets the bar for both Birmingham and the wider UK office market.”
CBRE and Savills are joint agents for the office space at 10 Brindleyplace.
