Mills & Reeve has found a new home for its Birmingham team at One Centenary Way.
The law firm will be relocating to a new 32,000 sq ft office in summer next year after an 18-year stay at 78-84 Colmore Row.
According to EG Radius, asking rents for the building are around £41 per sq ft.
The move follows the expansion of the team, which started with five employees and now counts more than 300 – 170 of whom are lawyers. Mills & Reeve is looking to further increase its presence in the city.
Signing up for one-and-a-half floors on levels four and five of One Centenary Way, Mills & Reeve will share the building with other occupiers, including Goldman Sachs, Arup and JLL.
Sitting right at the heart of Birmingham, the building forms a part of the wider Paradise development being delivered by MEPC and designed by architects Howells. The building is low-carbon and all-electric.
Jayne Hussey, partner and head of the Birmingham office at Mills & Reeve, said: “Our decision to move to One Centenary Way reflects our commitment to minimising our impact on the environment and recognising our responsibility for guardianship of the environment. It’s one of the city’s most sustainable and smart buildings providing technology, services and amenities which reflect our corporate values and will support our future growth and ambitions.”
CBRE acted for Mills & Reeve; Avison Young advised MEPC and Paradise.
