London EC2A

Located in the City of London, 10 Finsbury Square is a rare, strategic site between 2 significant green spaces in Central London — the 1.7 acre Finsbury Square and the historically protected grounds of the Honourable Artillery Company. Acquired by Pembroke in 2006, the site is currently in redevelopment planning stages.

Convenient Central London Location
In addition to having greenery on two sides, the property is a short walk to Moorgate and Liverpool Street Underground stations, and adjacent to the Finsbury Square underground car park, thereby making it easily accessible to a variety of commuters.

Significant Redevelopment Opportunity
Pembroke recently submitted a planning application for the development of a new, high quality office building on this property. Currently on the site are two adjacent, nine-storey office buildings originally developed in the 1950s and now functionally obsolete.

Upon redevelopment, the existing buildings will be demolished and a single new office building will be constructed. The redevelopment will add significant net rentable area comprising approximately 154,000 sf / 14,300 sqm of lettable office space, and take approximately two years to complete.

Designing a Well-Positioned Office Building
In keeping with Pembroke’s high standards for newly constructed properties, this will be an architecturally unique, highly functional building with high specification and sustainable design that will prove to be an attractive workplace for today’s businesses. The design will maximize net rentable area; allow for larger, more efficient floorplates; and provide tenants with exceptional access to light and open space. In order to ensure the new building design enhances the existing architectural character of the Square, Pembroke has been in consultation with the Planning Authority — London Borough of Islington — for several months and proposals are being reviewed with other relevant authorities prior to submission.
