Julian Barwick of Development Securities said the appetite for office space in locations such as Hammersmith is growing, as occupiers are increasingly price-sensitive and yet still discerning, with regards to quality.

"The supply of grade A office space in Hammersmith is otherwise very limited with 10 and 12 Hammersmith Grove providing the highest quality space in this market. We look forward to bringing the final phase of development to completion," Barwick said.

Transport for London (TfL), which owns the freehold for both 10 and 12 Hammersmith Grove, signed a 175-year lease agreement with Development Securities in 2010, to allow the development of the scheme.

Development Securities said that TfL remains a partner in the development, which has and continues to contribute to Hammersmith town centre regeneration, with office space, significant retail, improved local infrastructure and 2,500 jobs.
