Parkrun UK, the organisation responsible to coordinating weekly 5km
running events at over 1,400 locations in twenty-three countries across the
globe, has signed for new offices in Leeds.
Epsilon Real Estate Partners, advised by global real estate advisor
Colliers International, has disposed of 1,324 sq ft on the second floor at 12
Greek Street.
This latest five-year lease at a confidential rent brings the building
to 100% occupancy.
The company will join existing occupiers in the building, including Christie
& Co, First Intuition, Troup Bywaters + Anders, ESCS Group and Net Company.
Rodney Hunt, director, Epsilon Real Estate Partners, said: “We are very
pleased to welcome parkrun UK to 12 Greek Street; they are an excellent
addition to the diverse range of professional and media-focused tenants already
occupying the building. Colliers and WSB have worked very well together as a
team to let the final suites and we look forward to working with them again in
the future.
“Epsilon are fully committed to the North West of England having
recently opened a new office in Manchester and continue to seek office
investment assets to add to the existing portfolio.”
Colliers International, joint agent with WSB Property Consultants,
brokered the deal.
Oliver Stainsby of Colliers International said: “This deal is highly
significant; it brings the building to 100% occupancy for the first time since
its comprehensive refurbishment completed. A pro-active and effective marketing
campaign was undertaken which, combined with the excellent quality of office
accommodation and high quality local amenity offering, has resulted in a flurry
of lettings to a fantastic mix of occupiers.”
