Prestige Offices has announced the return of its podcast series, bringing new focus to the fascinating histories of London buildings that now serve as contemporary office spaces for forward-thinking companies.
Originally launched in 2020 and running until 2023, the podcast examined some of the capital’s most remarkable architectural transformations. Listeners were introduced to locations once used as ballrooms, tyre depots and more—now stylishly reimagined as flexible work environments with distinctive character.
Edward Lewis, Head of Research at Prestige Offices, said:
“We ran the podcast for two years during the pandemic and very much enjoyed sharing what we learned about London’s rich history through researching the celebrated buildings now offering first-class business space, and the districts that they sit within.”
The podcast, London’s Best Office Spaces – The Links Between London’s Past and the Modern World, features stories behind several landmark sites, including the classical architecture of Victoria House in Holborn, the historic halls of the Old Bailey, and the Mayfair home where Queen Elizabeth II was born. It also highlights the building where the first cheque was drawn in 1834 and the area now transformed by The Shard.
This podcast initiative is part of Prestige Offices’ ongoing effort to link modern workspace solutions with London’s deep-rooted architectural and social heritage.
Using storytelling and digital channels, the agency aims to celebrate the unique past of each building it represents—giving prospective occupiers insight into not just the facilities, but the rich legacy behind them.
Edward Lewis added:
“The research team took a hiatus from producing the podcast series whilst significantly upgrading the website by adding several new properties in numerous locations across London. The by-product of the enrichment exercise has been the discovery of a new bounty of fascinating facts. The team is excited to share these findings through the podcast relaunch.”
