Intellectual property firm lets floor at Leeds office building

Catella APAM, the real estate asset and investment manager, has secured a 10-year letting to HGF, one of Europe’s leading intellectual property firms, at 1 City Square, Leeds.

Acting on behalf of Danish pension fund Britannia Invest, Catella APAM has let the fourth floor of the building.

Chalwe Silwizya, senior asset manager at Catella APAM, said: “We are pleased to welcome HGF to One City Square, following the successful completion of our Cat A refurbishment on the 4th floor.

“This letting underscores the building’s strong appeal to global occupiers and reflects continued tenant demand for high-quality, Grade A office space, as the ‘flight to quality’ trend continues to drive market activity.”

Fox Lloyd Jones acted for Catella APAM, with Newmark representing HGF.

Nick Salkeld, director of Fox Lloyd Jones, said: “We’re delighted to have played our part in welcoming HGF to 1 City Square in the newly refurbished 4th floor.

“In the backdrop to the post-pandemic workspace revolution, 1 City Square has remained a market leader and continues to attract noteworthy corporate occupiers which is testament to the asset management strategy.”
