Bonhams re-opens for business
August 19 2008
Jones Lang LaSalle Scotland's Project and Development Services team has completed a £650,000 refurbishment and fit-out of Bonhams new headquarters in Edinburgh, ahead of the public opening on 19th August and the Scottish Sale on 25th August.The Category A listed building at 22 Queen Street required a substantial investment including replacement finishes, modern lighting, enhanced protective systems and bespoke finishes.
Kenny Myles, associate director of Jones Lang LaSalle, said: "There was a very challenging timescale which required intensive management, to ensure delivery for the client's Scottish Sale. The overall site programme was condensed to 12 weeks with significant works required outside normal office hours."
Miranda Grant, Managing Director, Bonhams Scotland said “Working with Jones Lang LaSalle on this project has been a complete pleasure. Their professionalism, attention to detail and understanding of how to bring a listed building up to a high standard of finish, from technical systems to Georgian cornicing, has enabled us to bring our new Scottish premises into line with our international salerooms in London and New York."
