A new office building on the outskirts of Edinburgh has been launched to the market following its practical completion.
Developed by Parabola at Edinburgh Park, One New Park Square consists of 85,000 sq ft of office space available for rent over five floors.
It claims to be the greenest building in the capital, with an EPC A and BREEAM excellent ratings awarded for all-electric infrastructure, photovoltaic arrays on the roof and double height balconies providing fresh-air circulation. It also has a WiredScore ‘Platinum’ rating in recognition of its digital infrastructure and connectivity.
The building has also been designed to minimise power consumption using 'lean technology'. The entire Edinburgh Park development is aiming to be net zero carbon in operation, powered by 100% green electricity, in part generated on the site.
One New Park Square includes a multi-use auditorium, meeting rooms and a restaurant, bar and bakery that will open in the summer.
It also sits within a civic square with an adjoining garden square, multi-use games area with padel tennis courts, along with a car park and cycle spaces.
The site will also comprise a further 1,000,000 sq ft of commercial space and up to 1,800 homes including for sale and rent.
The scheme was designed by architect AHMM, with Sir Robert McAlpine as the main contractor. JLL and Cushman and Wakefield are the joint letting agents.
Parabola’s managing director Tony Hordon said: “The completion of this cutting-edge office building is another step forward in the development of Edinburgh Park.
“Available now, it provides the perfect solution for occupiers looking for flexible and efficient office space in an easily accessible location with a focus on wellbeing.”
