206 St Vincent Street, Glasgow By Kristy Dorsey Employers in Edinburgh and Glasgow are seeking higher-quality office space as they are now getting “a sense of their direction of travel” as lockdown restrictions ease. That assessment from CBRE comes as the real estate group issued its figures on the state of the office markets in both cities during the first quarter of this year. Take-up was predictably modest during the period, though there were “encouraging signs” in both markets. Take-up in Glasgow totalled 74,641sq ft, down 62 per cent from a year earlier. That took the total for the 12 months since the pandemic took hold in the UK to 323,716sq ft.
