Forward-funded by Aberdeen Asset Management, the development, along with its sister site at 10 Hammersmith Grove, transformed a former surface car park in Hammersmith into 170,000 sq ft of Grade A office space spread over ten floors.

CAA, a creative talent agency who represent that likes of George Clooney, Cristiano Ronaldo and Tom Cruise, have agreed to lease 26,030 sq ft across the building’s eight and part of its seventh floor, while Perform Media Services have taken the whole sixth floor encompassing 17,634 sq ft.

Simon Hesketh, Executive Director of Regeneration, U+I said: “12 Hammersmith Grove is a great illustration of how a visionary development can transform a previously overlooked site.

“Working successfully with Aberdeen Asset Management and TfL we have delivered a new benchmark for commercial space in Hammersmith, building on the great success of 10 Hammersmith Grove.

“We are delighted to have completed these lettings at number 12 enabling us to bring two more leading companies to Hammersmith Grove, and look forward to announcing further deals soon.”

Elaine McCann, Associate Asset Manager, Aberdeen Asset Management, commented: “12 Hammersmith Grove sets a new benchmark for offices in Hammersmith, providing West End quality space within this West London market. We are delighted to have attracted these two fantastic occupiers to the building.”
