The Exchange, Offices

George Street

As the name might suggest, this used to be an old telephone exchange and with its large open floor plates, provides an ideal building to transform into contemporary office space. Consequently, we are completely redeveloping the building, both internally and externally to create 41,257 sq ft of brand new offices over five floors. With works already well progressed, the building is scheduled for completion in Spring 2008.

Magic story

The Exchange and 1 New York Street, which sit next to each other, are home to a series of secret tunnels. Constructed at a cost of £4m in the 1950’s at the height of the cold war they are more than 30m below ground and were designed to ensure the city's communications were protected in the event of an attack. The tunnels were removed from the official secrecy list in 1968 and nowadays they are still utilised as a useful way of distributing communication networks throughout the city centre.
