Leading Bristol Office Development Welcomes Three New Tenants, Securing 6,000 sq ft of Space

The Crescent office development in Bristol has solidified its reputation as the city’s most active office space, with three new tenants recently signing leases for approximately 6,000 sq ft. The new occupants, Vida Design, ANDigital, and Bailey Partnership, have all moved into the building, further enhancing its appeal in the competitive office market.

Currently, Crescent has an additional three suites under offer, which will increase the total occupancy to 65%, translating to around 64,749 sq ft of new office lettings since the building’s practical completion in summer 2025. The development is also celebrating the recent move of OVO Energy, which relocated from the nearby One Rivergate last month.

Paul Richardson, investment manager at RPG Property, remarked, “Crescent’s leasing momentum is testament to the quality of the redevelopment that we have speculatively delivered with occupier experience and sustainability as core design principles. We aren’t slowing down either—with a further 15% of the building currently in legals, we expect to announce more new tenant arrivals shortly.”

Harry Allen, Director of Office Agency at Savills Bristol, noted, “Crescent’s combination of Net Zero Carbon status, ability to offer CAT A or fully fitted turn-key offices and market leading amenity have proved a great success in the Bristol market. It was the city’s most active building for 2025 according to the official take up figures from the Bristol Office Agents Society.”

The success of Crescent mirrors a broader trend within the Bristol office market, where businesses are increasingly prioritising high-specification, sustainable workspaces to attract and retain talent. Following a £30 million redevelopment, Crescent features a double-height wrap-around atrium with breakout seating, a striking arrival experience, a private garden, a café, and an onsite studio gym.

Sustainability remains a fundamental aspect of the project, as evidenced by its BREEAM Excellent, EPC A accreditation, and Net Zero Carbon operational status. The reuse of the existing concrete structure has contributed to a 45% reduction in upfront embodied carbon compared to new builds. Coupled with state-of-the-art energy-efficient heating and cooling systems, Crescent stands out as a compelling option for tenants aiming to meet their Net Zero and corporate social responsibility goals.
