5 SOUTHWARK OFFICE MARKET Southwark has one of the lowest vacancy rates in central London, with strong demand for B1 office accommodation and very low supply, and is increasingly popular with the creative industries. These sectors now dominate current demand, which arises from the location s competitive occupational costs, proximity to the City and thriving local amenities. Media and Tech demand in 2014 accounted for 45% of Southwark take-up. Within the local area major corporate occupiers include: News International Ernst & Young HSBC Lloyds TSB United Business Media London Fire Brigade HCA Kaplan Financial IPC Media RBS Financial Times OFCOM Southwark Council KPMG LOCAL REGENERATION Borough High Street is due to benefit from the Elephant and Castle and Bermondsey Spa regeneration projects. The regeneration of London Bridge Station and the surrounding area, including the Shard and More London, have successfully established Southbank as a key business location with ongoing and future developments set to further enhance the area. Southwark Council and Lend Lease have entered into a partnership to deliver the 1.5 billion Elephant & Castle regeneration project which is located less than 1.6 km (1 mile) south west of the property. The regeneration project is expected to take 10 years to deliver and will provide almost 3,000 new homes, create 6,000 new jobs and deliver a number of community assets including a new park, investment into local schools and improved transport networks.
