DALLAS-Dallas-based Harwood International has signed two New York City-based financial firms to two full floors at its stately Cleveland House, a 73,000-sf office building in London’s West End near Buckingham Palace.

The 10-year-old Gleacher & Co. LLC will be opening its first United Kingdom office on the third floor, taking 10,240 sf in a 15-year pact, a Harwood source has told GlobeSt.com. The fourth floor’s 10,400 sf will be occupied by Elliott Management Ltd., a 23-year-old hedge fund. Elliott Management, a subsidiary of US-based Elliott Associates LP, also has signed a 15-year lease. It will be relocating from a smaller office that it has maintained in London for the past six years.

Gleacher, a Madison Avenue company, already has ties in the UK, counting among its partners, Sir John Craven, who had been knighted two years ago for services to London and the banking industry. The 39-year-old Craven had joined Gleacher in January along with Alton F. Irby III, another well-known in London business circles.
