vacant suites.
Executive Chairman, Sten Mortstedt, said,
'In such a competitive market we are pleased to have acquired the freehold
interest in Quayside Lodge. The building offers great scope to add value
through active management in the short to medium term, and in the long term an
exciting opportunity exists to redevelop or introduce new uses.'
