The development comprises a total of 140,000 square feet of office space and ground floor retail space.

“AW James had the vision, market insight and confidence to undertake the only speculative office building in Milton Keynes for a decade, for which they have most certainly been rewarded. To fully let the entire 140,000 sq ft within 1 month of practical completion is an exceptional outcome, it clearly proves the level of pent up occupier demand in the town for the best space. Milton Keynes as an office destination is going from strength to strength and is one of fastest growing towns in the UK with excellent connectivity and continually improving infrastructure”
