The Goldman Sachs building has been on the go for years, hasn’t it?
Site was cleared before the referendum, and construction contracts signed back then.
Original plan was to move staff from the US into there… but that seems to have gone quiet.
In fact lots of chatter about the reverse happening, and New York preparing for UK staff now.
No chance of the new London HQ building being canned at this late stage really… more likely to sell other sites for big money. They also have the flexibility to occupy as few floors of the new building as they want, no commitment to using the whole thing. Wiley chaps at Goldman… …the new building can used as the ideal base for a smaller UK presence, all in one place, just as easily as giving them the room to move people to the UK if a miracle occurs and our future trading arrangements are good and shiny.
You knew all that though, didn’t you THM.
