THE only speculative office scheme in Leeds to get underway this year - 10 South Parade - has secured its first letting.
Xafinity Consulting, the employee benefits and pensions services provider, which was previously located at 9 South Parade, has signed a lease to take 8,200 sq ft of office space in the new Wilton Developments scheme for its regional headquarters.
10 South Parade is a 36,000 sq ft office development that is undergoing an extensive refurbishment, re-build and revitalisation programme which will result in Leeds’ first Grade A+ city centre office scheme to come to market when complete summer 2010.
David Emptage, director of Xafinity Consulting, said: “The accommodation in our new office will benefit both our staff and clients.
“We looked at other Grade A office space elsewhere in Leeds city centre, but believe the finished article here will be exactly what we and our clients need.”
DTZ, Knight Frank and WSB are advising Wilton Developments on the scheme
