Office space available to let in the iconic Lewis Building, located in Birmingham's thriving Colmore Business District
The Lewis Building’s grand exteriors hark back to a period when the building enjoyed much-loved status as Birmingham’s leading department store. Creating a strong and imposing presence the Portland stone façades, with their classic detailing deliver a building that exudes character and style.
In direct contrast, the refurbished interiors of The Lewis Building are distinctly contemporary. The entrance area featuring high quality finishes transform the experience at street level and the flexible 16,600 sq ft floorplates exceed the ever-changing demands of todays modern occupiers.
With floor to ceiling heights of 2.75 metres the spacious floorplates will create stylish and characterful workspaces to suit any occupier.
The Lewis Building has been designed to achieve a high level of sustainability both during construction and in operation. The building features low-energy LED lighting and high efficiency heating, air-conditioning, water supply and ventilation systems. During construction all waste materials from the building were graded for recycling and a target of 95% was set by our strip-out partners for redirecting iron and steel, wood, plaster and mixed materials, all avoiding disposal to landfill. Consideration has been given throughout the building in the use of sustainable materials. The most impressive examples of this is in the reception hall waiting areas. Upcycled original Azobé wood from decommissioned Danish wharves has been used to dramatic effect in the build of Thors tables and benches in the library and seated waiting areas.
The Lewis Building also has the benefit of dual planning use, both Use Class E and F1 are in place allowing the building to accommodate both office and educational provider requirements.
