Firms seeking new large London offices in the City are taking space that is less than a four minute walk from a tube or train station, aiming to make post-pandemic commutes as ‘pain-free as possible’, research published on Monday shows.
Property consultancy Savills looked at office lettings of 100,000 square feet and above in the City of London in the last three years. It found that the average distance between an office and nearest station is a three and three quarter minute walk. Among the deals featured was law firm Linklaters signing for a new HQ at 20 Ropemaker.
