The law firm Linklaters has already pre-let the lower five floors of the eight-storey building, and it is in negotiations to lease the remaining space on the 5th, 6th & 7th floors. To allow the investment deal to proceed, Helical Bar has agreed to underwrite the rental payments on the top three floors until they are let should Linklaters decide not to occupy the space.

Matrix was advised by Weatherall Green & Smith and Drivers Jonas. Helical Bar was advised by FPD Savills.
