A SCOTTISH construction and property consultancy has secured work to fit-out new offices for two prominent law firms.
Thomas & Adamson announced yesterday that it will provide project and cost management services to Shepherd and Wedderburn for its new premises at Haymarket One, the first office to be released at the £350 million Haymarket Edinburgh development.
T&A will deliver a 30,000 square foot commercial fit-out for Shepherd and Wedderburn spread over the top two floors at the seven-storey Haymarket One, where tenants will also include Capricorn Energy, the Edinburgh-based oil and has company known formerly as Cairn Energy.
Shepherd and Wedderburn is relocating its head office to Haymarket One from its current base at Exchange Crescent on Conference Square. T&A is due to begin work on the project in the middle of the year.
Meanwhile, T&A also said it has secured work to fit-out a new 6,440 sq ft office for Morton Fraser in Glasgow. The office, at the Grade A 1 West Regent Street, will include new formal client meeting rooms, informal meeting space, and collaboration areas for staff. Morton Fraser’s current Glasgow office is on St Vincent Street.
Paul Mackintosh, associate director at T&A, said: “The hybrid working model is here to stay, therefore it’s hugely important that employers establish an office space that is inviting; a space that people want to return to and that fulfils their basic needs, such as keeping them healthy and safe. We look forward to delivering both firms’ vision for a destination office space of the highest quality in the best locations for when they return.”
Haymarket Edinburgh developers M&G Real Estate and Qmile Group announced last week that they have now fully pre-let all 390,000 sq ft at the Grade A site, which came with the news that legal giant Dentons had committed to occupy the first floor at Haymarket One.
As well as offices, Haymarket Edinburgh will also include hotels, shops and leisure facilities.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
