BDPs Atria Edinburgh completes
May 1 2013
The 200,000sq/ft property is split between two buildings adjacent to the Edinburgh International Conference Centre and will be the only speculative city centre Grade A office building to complete in the UK outside London by early 2013.
Sue Bruce, chief executive of The City of Edinburgh Council, said: “This development, set against the backdrop of a UK market where there is a dearth of large speculative office developments, gives Edinburgh a competitive advantage in attracting new, and retaining existing, businesses.”
Designed by BDP the development team includes main contractor Sir Robert McAlpine and structural engineer Halcrow Yolles.
A public art wall featuring a quote from author Alexander McCall Smith has been installed in Atria One.
Atria One provides 186,000 sq/ft of space whilst the smaller Atria Two offers 13,000 sq/ft
Atria One should achieve BREEAM 'Excellent' and EPC 'B' ratings whilst Atria Two is on course to receive BREEAM 'Very Good' and an EPC 'C' rating
