📍#Birmingham Smithfield, Plot 3 On the advice of planning agents, Plot 3 for a Grade A office workspace has seen its footprint reduced. The building, now 180K SF, with one core and two terraces, is now seen as 'optimal' to cater to market demands & maintain project momentum ✌️

The former, larger footprint, at c.260K SF NIA, was designed to target a specific occupier's requirements. Unfortunately, that occupier has since fallen away, resulting in the above changes.
