Cannon Street Office Space

Cannon Street office space shares the thoroughfare with the medieval ‘London Stone’, first recorded in the 12th century and thought to be related to the Roman praetorium, or ‘governor’s palace’, believed to have been erected in the second part of the 1st century.

The road in the EC4 postcode district runs roughly parallel to the River Thames in the City of London. It starts from the west at St Paul’s Churchyard outside St Paul’s Cathedral. Running east, it meets Queen Victoria Street near Mansion House station, passes Cannon Street station, and finally meets King William Street and Gracechurch Street near Monument station.

Historically, Cannon Street was the place of residence for candle makers in the City. Its name was first recorded as Candlewright Street in the 12^th century. Due to local dialect, it was shortened over 50 times over the centuries until the name Cannon Street was settled in the 17th century. Therefore, it has no relation to weaponry. The Candlewick ward of the City is named after the street and was not the subject of so many alterations.

Today, high-profile businesses and organisations from a wide range of sectors have chosen to rent office space on Cannon Street, including the Financial Times (FT), investment company Fidelity International, private healthcare provider Circle Health Group, and the European head office of the Industrial Bank of Japan is based on Cannon Street.

Incoming occupiers can choose prime office spaces to rent that are available with state-of-the-art infrastructure and ready-to-fit.

There is also a growing number of CAT A ready-fitted plug-and-play office spaces managed by premium office providers and workspace operators on behalf of clients.

The high-end private serviced and managed offices are available on relatively short-term contracts compared to leased offices, and the licences allow for extensions to terms and expansion into larger suites or private floors.

These options offer all-inclusive packages, so the monthly rent covers utilities, cleaning, furnishings, buildings insurance, reception, administrative support, concierge services, and other overheads typically paid for and managed separately if renting an office via a conventional lease.

These 5-star workspaces are equipped with state-of-the-art business technologies, such as secure enterprise-grade IT systems and amenities, including business lounges, coffee bars, private phone booths, gyms and shower facilities.

Occupiers enjoy abundant amenities – the surrounding area has one of the largest concentrations of historic pubs in the City of London, as well as restaurants, coffee shops and fitness facilities. They also have easy access to excellent public transportation links, with rail and underground services provided by Cannon Street, Mansion House, Monument, and St Paul’s stations.
