ABSTRACT
Other prelets followed, including Network Rail and Logica, with the result that the building was fully let on the day it opened. Other property developers may regard the building as being hopelessly uneconomic, but it is impossible to separate the generosity of its concept from the fact that it has been fully let and profitable since it opened. On the visit we came to the conclusion that cities would be much better places if all offices were built this way, but that this was probably unrealistic. We were not, however, clear whether this made Kings Place less important as a replicable model or more impressive for the achievement of it being built.
