Developer McLaren Property has received the green light from Leeds City Council to develop a 17-storey office building in the city centre.

The project, situated on Wellington Street, will see the creation of Grade A multi-occupied office workspace – and will become one of the largest such buildings in Leeds.

The development includes:

  • 17-Storey Build
  • 330,000sq ft of office space
  • Roof terrace [emaillocker id=”71749″]
  • High-end gym
  • Underground car parking for 110 spaces
  • Commercial units for flexible use across the ground floor
McLaren Property – who’re speaking at our Leeds Development Plans Event in March – hope to commence activity on-site by the end of this year, with completion likely to be early 2023.

Oliver Westray, Development Director for McLaren Property, said: “We’re delighted to receive approval for our plans for Wellington Street and we thank Leeds City Council for their enthusiasm for the project. We have focused on designing a forward-thinking, tech-enabled development with large efficient floor plates that will attract both indigenous occupiers and inward movers. We are excited to progress with our plans following approval and look forward to seeing this major scheme come to fruition for Leeds.”

“Leeds is a thriving city and is a place seeing significant investment across various sectors. A prosperous hub for technology, financial and professional services, we have designed this scheme to offer something different in the city that will appeal directly to these audiences. Channel 4 selecting Leeds as the destination of its new home shows a real statement of intent and will no doubt attract other occupiers to the city hoping to be close to the media giant.”

OBI and Colliers are retained agents on the scheme and are already in discussions with several interested parties.
