Real estate firm set to join next phase of £400m Leeds mixed-use development

Real estate specialist CEG has submitted a planning application for the next 200,000 sq ft of commercial space at a £400m mixed-use development in Leeds.

The firm has submitted a reserved matters (detailed) application for the space at the 57-acre Kirkstall Forge scheme, situated just outside of the city centre.

Nick Lee, development director at CEG, commented: “This next phase will bring some of the most advanced and well-connected office space to Leeds.

“This, alongside our commercial development close to Leeds City Station at Temple will help to meet the need for high quality workspace in attractive environments, helping businesses to attract and retain talent.”

Designed by Cooper Cromar architects, the two-building development will provide ground floor leisure and retail space, as well as a range of flexible office accommodation on the upper floors.

Paul Fox of Fox Lloyd Jones, which has been appointed to market the space, commented: “We are very excited to see the planning application for the next phase of offices at Kirkstall Forge submitted.

“Now that the multi-award-winning Number One Kirkstall Forge is almost fully occupied and, given the lack of office supply across the city, we feel timing is perfect to bring this next phase to market.

“This will be another prime city centre quality property in this unique and inspiring environment, just six minutes from Leeds City Centre.”
