Gensler Takes 30k SF At Newly Launched Moretown Development

Resolution Property launched Moretown, the rebranded Thomas More Square estate in Wapping, London, with confirmation of a major pre-letting to Gensler, the world’s largest architecture, design, planning and consulting practice.

Gensler signed a 15-year lease to occupy 30k SF at one of the refurbished buildings within the 560k SF Moretown campus. In 2017 it will move its 220 employees in from its current London headquarters at Aldgate House, EC3N, to a state-of-the-art facility that will provide space for future expansion.

Gensler will create a space at Moretown that is tailored to the specific needs of its highly creative workforce.
