Manchester-headquartered law firm Davis Blank Furniss has relocated to Deva City Office Park.
The firm moves from 90 Deansgate, where it has been since 1965.
It moves to a 4,709 sq ft self-contained building at the office park, located on the site of the former Threlfall Brewery, on a six-year lease.
Kate Oldfield, managing partner of Davis Blank Furniss, said it was “a big decision” for the firm to move from Deansgate, but it “knew the time was right”.
“The relocation is an opportunity for us to create a more dynamic and nimble post Covid-19 business structure which is focussed on growth.”
The firm said the decision, made last year, was based on various factors, including enabling better client access and providing a more flexible and technologically advanced working environment for staff.
The firm said it took several months to find and negotiate the right space.
Deva City Office Park comprises 17 self-contained office units and the Grade-II listed Tower Building.
The development was purchased by Northwood Investors in 2011 and is home to a variety of occupiers including Handelsbanken and Domu Brands.
Edwards & Co acted on behalf of Northwood Regional UK and are the joint agents on Deva City Office Park, alongside CBRE and Canning O’Neill.
Oliver Woodall, senior surveyor at Edwards & Co, said it was “delighted” to secure the letting amid “challenging market conditions”.
“Interest in the vacant offices remains high as occupiers seek quality self-contained workspaces with on-site parking and fantastic road access.”
