Landsec has agreed a 192,000 sq ft lease with bp for the entire 15-storey Ink building at its newly completed Timber Square development in Bankside, SE1, which will serve as bp’s new global headquarters and leaves the scheme 54% let.

With excellent transport links near Waterloo, London Bridge and Blackfriars, and proximity to major leisure destinations such as Borough Market, the scheme is designed to support employee wellbeing and talent attraction, highlighting how sustainability, location and experience are increasingly central to occupier decisions in London’s office market.
