Currie & Brown to cost manage new Grade A office development in Bristol City Centre

26 November 2019

Candour Group, in partnership with Tristan Capital Partners, has commissioned Currie & Brown to cost manage the development of a new Grade A office in the centre of Bristol.

Located within the Bristol Temple Quarter Enterprise Zone, the development will comprise 275,000ft² over a basement, a ground floor and seven upper floors.

Toby Pentecost, co-founder of Candour Group, said: “There is less and less high-quality office space available in Bristol – partly because of the conversion of existing space to new homes and other uses, and partly because there are fewer developments coming forward.

“We see a great opportunity here to redress that balance and bring forward a new development with best-in-class workspace, sustainability, occupier wellbeing, connectivity and design-quality at its heart. This will be one of the city’s largest developments for 25 years, reflecting both our confidence in continuing demand and the market’s requirement for new space as soon as possible.”

Trevor Essex, director at Currie & Brown, added: “We are excited to be working with Candour Group to deliver much-needed office space in Bristol’s city centre. Construction is set to commence in 2020 and, once complete, the development will help with the increased demand for state-of-the-art office space in the city.”
