Europaviertel
Frankfurt
The mix of tenants that CA Immo has secured for the office space of the ONE in 2021 could not be more colourful. In addition to the more traditional high-rise tenants like Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank (Crédit Agricole CIB) or the consulting firms Baker Tilly and KROONGARD GmbH, the international independent game company Cloud Imperium Games Ltd. has also signed a lease agreement in ONE. In total, around 11,250 m² of office space has be let in ONE in 2021. What is remarkable is that more and more companies are moving from the traditional banking district into the ONE. The innovative concept of the building as well as the proximity to likewise future-oriented companies is convincing.
With the variety of business sectors, the requirements for the fit-out of the individual rental spaces naturally vary as well. While discretion is indispensable for some, others thrive on constant creative exchange. Baker Tilly, for example, has chosen an office concept with 90 per cent individual rooms for their new spaces in ONE as well. In contrast, Cloud Imperium Games Ltd. Is able to implement a consistent open space concept here. Nevertheless, a combination of open work areas, informal meeting rooms and classic office cubicles would also be possible to be realized in ONE. For example, in order to be able to switch quickly from concentrated individual work to teamwork.
All of this is possible because from an early stage on, the floor plans were designed in such a way that the increasingly diverse requirements for workplaces are taken into account and the tenants can implement their individual space concept flexibly and at the same time with high efficiency. In ONE, this is achieved, among other things, through an optimally selected axis grid for offices and intelligently chosen positions for the connections of the workstations. The comprehensive digitalization concept of the ONE will also contribute to providing the best possible connectivity at every location of the building. The ONE is the first office building and high-rise in Germany to receive WiredScore Platinum certification, making it a leader in connectivity and digital infrastructure.
Mix of uses in the building as well as attractiveness of location repeated decisive criteria for leasing in 2021
All tenants are convinced that the campus concept of the ONE would provide them with excellent workspaces not only on their own floors, but throughout the entire building. Gerrit Sadowski, partner at Baker Tilly, summarizes: “The overall package offered by ONE was crucial in our decision to rent. On the one hand, you have the highly efficient floor plans for the office spaces, and on the other, the numerous options that the building’s mixed use offers us. In addition to the range of informal meeting places, such as the lobby with the café and the lounge area, the integrated co-working offerings from Spaces and the conference rooms in the nhow Hotel are particularly worthy of note. Both promise us considerable flexibility.”
Alexander Heidemann, Area Manager Frankfurt at KRONGAARD, confirms: “The numerous in-house offerings, from the shared lobby to the integrated coworking to the Skybar, turn the building – we are convinced – into a very attractive place to come to, especially for our employees.”
Baker Tilly is already familiar with the location where Europaviertel and the banking district intersect and would no longer want to miss the attractive range of offers in the immediate vicinity and the convenient transport connections. Crédit Agricole is now attracted to this very location. We look forward to welcoming each and every one of them to ONE.
