Sony-owned Firesprite strikes Liverpool’s largest office letting in three years

Sony-owned game developer Firesprite will move from the Vanilla Factory on Fleet Street in Liverpool to the Ropewalks district, where the company has signed a 10-year lease. Firesprite will occupy the entire four-building cluster at 91 and 105 Duke Street, totalling 50,000 sq ft. The letting is the largest in Liverpool since parent company Sony took 65,000 sq ft at Echo Place in 2019. Office take-up in Liverpool city centre has been low over recent months and years, with the largest deal for 2021 totalling around 20,000 sq ft. In the first quarter of 2022, just 8,000 sq ft of space was let in the city centre, compared with 72,000 sq ft out of town. Worthington Owen acted for Firesprite on the deal.
