‘Fully let’ signs up at flagship Warrington office building

Less than a year after its completion, the team at MEPC Birchwood Park in Warrington, is putting up the ‘fully let’ signs at 305 Bridgewater Place.

The 47,500 sq. ft. building takes pride of place in the award-winning Bridgewater Place scheme and has reached full occupancy with the arrival of the Ministry of Justice.

The upcoming Hillsborough Inquest will be held on the 15,000 sq. ft. ground floor of the building, which is being fitted out to create a court of law to the specifications of the Ministry of Justice. It is estimated that the converted room will have capacity for 300 to 350 people when the Inquest begins in March.

An existing Birchwood Park customer has also agreed a pre-let deal for the first and second floor of the building, taking over 30,000 sq. ft. of space.

The Bridgewater Place scheme, designed by BDP, previously scooped a regional award for Best Commercial Space at the British Council of Offices.

Andrew Cowell, commercial director of Birchwood Park, said: “That the Ministry of Justice has selected 305 Bridgewater Place as the venue for the Hillsborough Inquest is testament to the quality of the building and the unrivalled location of Birchwood Park in the North West.”
