Land Securities has let a further 50,000 sq ft at 62 Buckingham Gate SW1, taking the occupancy rate to 96 per cent. The latest additions to the tenant line-up are leading Italian investment bank Mediobanca and international sport, entertainment and communications group Chime.
Mediobanca will move to the fourth floor of the office building, joining a growing list of financial businesses based in the heart of Victoria. Meanwhile, Chime has committed to 25,000 sq ft on the third floor, as it pursues its plans to establish a campus in the district where Land Securities is currently transforming the area around Victoria Street.
The latest lettings follow the recent announcement that fast-growing financial technology company, WorldRemit has taken 25,000 sq ft at 62 Buckingham Gate, adding to an international occupier mix featuring Rolls Royce and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Head of Commercial at Land Securities, Kaela Fenn-Smith, commented: “62 Buckingham Gate is playing a significant role in the continued transformation of Victoria, which, as these lettings to Chime and Mediobanca demonstrate, is an increasingly attractive destination for both the financial and media sectors. We look forward to welcoming both these businesses to 62 Buckingham Gate.”
Land Securities was advised by Knight Frank and JLL, Mediobanca was advised by Colliers, while Chime was advised by CBRE.
