A landmark deal at TBC.London has set a new benchmark for office rents in SE1, underscoring a sharp rise in demand for high-specification, future-ready workspaces.

Developed by FORE Partnership in collaboration with KKR, TBC.London is not just a building, it’s a blueprint for the future of work. Designed as a fully electric, net-zero carbon office building, it represents a transformative vision for how workplaces can balance environmental performance, technological innovation, and human wellbeing.

The recent record-setting lease demonstrates that tenants are increasingly seeking spaces that are more than just functional, they are drawn to offices that embody sustainability, elevate employee experience, and offer future-proofed infrastructure.

TBC.London delivers on all fronts, combining best-in-class design, high-efficiency systems, generous outdoor space, all aired with cutting-edge digital infrastructure, setting a new standard for sustainable development in London.

NodeTech, a leader in building-wide digital infrastructure, has equipped TBC.London with a comprehensive suite of connectivity solutions, including:

  • Day-one access to multiple ISPs, eliminating delays, costs and wayleave complexity
  • A secure, resilient converged network supporting:
    • Smart environmental and occupancy sensors via Metrikus
    • In-building tenant app integration via Smart Spaces
    • Enhanced mobile coverage provided by Shared Access
  • Fully managed WiFi in common areas, including the rooftop terrace with panoramic views of Tower Bridge
  • Delivered on a no capex basis, with predictable lifecycle-managed costs for the landlord

Buildings like TBC.London are pushing the industry forward, by combining deep sustainability with best-in-class tenant experience. We’re proud to support that vision with infrastructure that’s as progressive as the space itself,” said Russ Dobson, COO, NodeTech.

TBC.London’s success reinforces a larger trend: the future of commercial real estate lies in places that are designed not just for occupancy, but for purpose. With flexibility, sustainability, and connectivity at its core, TBC.London is a compelling example of where London’s office market is headed.
