Multi-million pound investment in Leeds City Centre

The multi-million pound renovation of one of Leeds’ most impressive buildings – One Embankment – has completed on time despite the constraints of lockdown and the ongoing Covid-19 related restrictions.

The five-storey refurbishment has been designed by The Harris Partnership and Sister Company Vector Design Concepts.

The project delivers sought after flexible working spaces including self-contained open plan office-space, an impressive ground floor reception area and business lounge. Plus, as Vector’s Ketia Fong Wah explains hub and social working space that’s in high demand.

Ketia said: “Obviously more people are working from home but, the right office space is still business critical. Demand continues to rise for flexible spaces that offer breakout areas, room for collaboration and an environment that enables creative thinking – and that’s what One Embankment’s new space will deliver.”


It’s not just the inside of the building that has a fresh, new, forward thinking look. The Vector team have also designed new external signage to compliment the communal outdoor terrace area.

Tony Stott, from JLL added: Working in partnership with Vector and THP has made, what could have been a very trying time a lot easier. They know what we need, have experience, drive and talent and have managed to deliver on the vision we had for this space.”

A spokesperson for LaSalle Investment Management added: “On behalf of its retained client owner, LaSalle Investment Management is absolutely delighted to launch a superb grade A refurbished office building in such a good location. The finished building has unrivalled amenity with a high quality ground floor reception & business lounge, river terrace and excellent levels of secure on-site car-parking. In terms of rent, the property is priced extremely competitively considering the quality of the accommodation offered.”
