Hoare Lea announces relocation of London office to King’s Cross

Hoare Lea is to relocate its London office to King’s Cross with a 15-year lease on 2000 m2 in the Western Transit Shed. The relocation will take place in Autumn 2012, the year in which Hoare Lea celebrates its 150th anniversary. The existing offices of 1300 m2 accommodate 165 staff, and the planned move is the eighth commercial agreement to be signed at King’s Cross.

Miles Freeman, managing partner at the London office, said, ‘King’s Cross met all of the aspirations we set at the start of our search for new premises, especially in terms of quality of design and commitment to sustainability, both of which are extremely important to us at Hoare Lea. King’s Cross is a superb development, with a well developed sense of place, in a central, incredibly well connected location.
