Samsung in partnership with DTZ Investors is favourite to buy One London Wall Place, EC2, for around £512m from Brookfield.
The sale follows the Brookfield’s purchase last year of Oxford Properties’ 50% leasehold stake in the pair’s £700m joint venture development of One and Two London Wall Place.
One London Wall Place is occupied by Schroders, which prelet the whole 310,000 sq ft block in 2014.
