LONDON--Facebook Inc. (FB) has leased more space at its office
in London's West End, landlord British Land Co. PLC (BLND.LN) said
Wednesday.
Facebook already occupies 87,000 square feet of British Land's
Regent's Place campus. It has now agreed to take a further 66,000
square feet, occupying the fifth floor, floors nine to sixteen, and
a ground-floor events space.
"Our work to make Regent's Place a vibrant destination in its
own right has been crucial in attracting high calibre media and
technology businesses, of which Facebook is unquestionably one,"
said James Danby, British Land's head of office leasing.
"Facebook's decision to expand their presence at Regent's Place
is a fantastic endorsement of the campus, and underlines their
commitment to this location."
