Anchor tenant signs at Chester’s City Place

An accountancy firm has been confirmed as the anchor tenant at Chester’s multimillion-pound City Place office development.

RSM will relocate around 85 staff from existing space in the city and will take a 8,116 sq ft floorplate on the top floor of the property near Chester Railway Station. The firm has agreed to a ten-year lease.

Jill Jones, RSM’s regional managing partner for the North West, said: “It’s an exciting time at RSM. We’ve grown through acquisition and strategic hires over the last 12 months – enhancing our key practice areas, sector specialisms and service to clients.

“The move to the city’s business quarter is a key part of this growth and reinforces our positioned as a mid-market leader in the region and across the UK.”

One City Place, a project led by developer and urban regeneration specialist Muse Developments, launched earlier this year and features 70,000 sq ft of office space set in Chester’s first £100m Central Business Quarter. Read more
