Article posted: 04 Apr 2011

New development Central St Giles is set to welcome yet another media tenant hot-on-the-heels of Specific Media and Mindshare who between them late last year placed over 100,000 sq ft under offer at the new 500,000 sq ft mixed-use scheme by joint venture Legal & General Property and Mitsubishi Estate Company.

Universal Studios is taking accommodation on the ground, mezzanine, first, second and part of the third floors totalling 112,000 sq ft of grade A office space in the West End at the Renzo Piano designed scheme which has become a media hub. The film makers are thought to be paying around £50 per sq ft for the prime location office space close to Tottenham Court Road. Universal will relocate from their Prospect House offices on New Oxford Street.

Specific Media will move from their offices in Victoria to take up 25,000 sq ft at Central St Giles while Mindshare has already completed its relocation from office space in the Strand to 78,000 sq ft at the new media hub.
