An RICS and CEF award winner (2022), this is PWC’s main UK headquarters outside of London.

An ambitious and complex redevelopment of 3 individual concrete framed buildings, the scheme provides 230,000 sq.ft. of Grade A office space, accommodating up to 3,000 employees.

The removal of the dilapidated facade and the recladding of the building gave the opportunity to achieve a distinct identity through the use of corten steel cladding, resonating with Belfast’s industrial heritage and red brick urban fabric.

As the largest single-let commercial property deal in Northern Ireland history (being sold for £87m), Merchant Square was the first refurbished building in Northern Ireland to achieve BREEAM Excellent.
