Palm Capital has leased 15,000 sq ft across two floors of its Abbey Gardens office development in Reading to the Ministry of Justice (MoJ).
The space has been extensively refurbished to provide a modern working environment for MoJ’s staff. The BREEAM Very Good accredited office is located in the heart of Reading’s Abbey Quarter and is close to the town’s mainline railway station.
Guy Parkes, Reading-based partner at Vail Williams, which represented the landlord on the letting, said: “The building has recently benefited from an upgrade, adding collaboration space such as a new business lounge, yoga studio and outside meeting and event space as well as updated reception facility.
“This keeps pace with fresh demands to bring people back together in an enhanced and vibrant workplace environment. The Ministry of Justice choosing Abbey Gardens is testament to the resilience of well-managed office buildings with great sustainability credentials that have benefitted from substantial investment.”
The Ministry of Justice was advised by Cushman & Wakefield and Palm Capital was advised by Vail Williams and Knight Frank.
