Toilers at the Daily Mail in Northcliffe House, Kensington, can relax - they're not being prised from their leased HQ, home to their operations since the move from Fleet Street in 1988. The Times recently shared a rumour that they were off to a disused department store area of the Westfield Shopping Centre in Shepherd's Bush.
Now they've signed a new 15 year-lease on 103,000 sq ft (perhaps just three floors ?) as the whole building is being refurbished and renamed Barkers Building. The deal will see the Daily Mail make a temporary move into another building on Kensington High Street owned by the same landlord, for a two-year period while the works take place, moving back in the second quarter of 2024. They are promised "upgraded wellness-focused features", which should please Paul Dacre.
