The Plaza

Impressively situated among the grandiose 18th century streets of St James's is The Economist Plaza. This group of three iconic buildings is a testament to the inimitable style of the 1960s and epitomises everything that is cool and minimal about the structural design of the time. The Plaza exudes a chic and vibrant quality where art meets architecture to create the ultimate office environment.

All of the major transport links are readily to hand and it offers easy access to the abundance of glorious parks and squares that bless the areas of St James's and Mayfair. In a nutshell, The Economist Plaza is undoubtedly one of the most striking commercial locations available to lease in the West End of London.
