PATRIZIA, a leading partner for global real assets, has announced the signing of Clifford Chance as the first tenant for The Louise, its iconic office re-development in the heart of Brussels. The international law firm has signed a lease for the three top floors of the 24-storey building, spanning 3,150 sq. m., and is expected to move into the landmark office on 1 July 2024.

Currently located on Avenue Louise, the international law firm will move its Belgian office to The Louise, comprising a team of 100 people. Already at the time of PATRIZIA’s acquisition of the building in 2019, Clifford Chance, that acted as the legal advisor to PATRIZIA in that acquisition, expressed an interest to become a tenant upon completion of the major re-development.

The re-development is being delivered by PATRIZIA’s pan-European Real Estate Development team.

Sam Walsh, Director of Real Estate Development at PATRIZIA, says: “Since day one, our ambition for The Louise has been to introduce a best-in-class office that’s built on four key pillars: smart technology, occupants’ wellbeing, sustainability and Grade A office facilities. We are absolutely committed to delivering a state-of-the-art building that will be net zero carbon in operation, driving significant future value for investors and occupiers.”
