A KEY waterfront office development in Glasgow will be “fully electric” to minimise the building’s environmental impact.
Currently undergoing refurbishment, the 80,000sqft Grade A building – 200 Broomielaw – is adopting a “formula of smart building design, high-quality specification and intelligent technology to make it one of the most energy-efficient office developments in Glasgow”.
Property investment firm AM Alpha said it will feature benefits including electric car-charging points and “intelligent” LG7 LED lighting.
Facilities for cycling-friendly commuting have been included in the building and it has secured platinum certification from CyclingScore. There will also be a wellness suite with yoga studio and gym-style changing rooms.
Martin Lemke of Munich-based AM Alpha described 200 Broomielaw as “arguably the best and largest riverside office building available in Glasgow city centre”, noting: “We care about the planet and have embedded sustainable technology to help our occupiers reduce their carbon footprints and meet future environmental targets.”
On completion, 200 Broomielaw will provide space over nine levels.
JLL and Reith Lambert are joint letting agents for 200 Broomielaw.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
