With the pressure of the new near looming, the two weeks before Christmas saw a surge of take-up in office space across London. Occupiers are usually very keen to have their new office organised before starting the new year and make quick decisions before Christmas, and 2016 was no exception. The landlord Blackstone saw 280,000 sq ft of their offices let in the lead up to the holidays, which is a large percentage of the year’s total lets of 545,000 sq ft.
