Designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox, HQ5 is a 30-storey tower and the stainless steel and glass and cladding has now reached full height, with internal fit-out work on schedule for completion next year.
At the same time Northern Trust Co is to take an additional 18,000 sf in the HQ4 building at 50 Bank Street and The European Medicines Evaluation Agency has signed up for an additional 15,000 sf at 7 Westferry Circus.
Canary Wharf Group Chief Executive Officer George Iacobescu said: 'At a time when questions are being asked of occupiers about the cost of space and the need for flexibility, these companies are demonstrating the confidence they have in their business growth. With Bank of America having exchanged contracts on a sub-lease of 260,000 sf from CSFB, Canary Wharf's office take up this year will have reached 530,000 sf.'
