Clifford Chance (CC) has advised trophy property client Canary Wharf on the sale of a 400,000 sq ft building to KPMG for £260m, as firms continue to vie for the property giant's work.
CC real estate partner Jonathan Solomon led a team advising Canary Wharf on the sale of 15 Canada Square to the big four accountant, making it the first major accounting firm to locate its headquarters in the area. Construction is due to be completed by April 2009.
Solomon was assisted by commercial property partners Elizabeth Young and Tony Briam and real estate finance partner Damian Perry. Solomon said: "Because of the terms negotiated with KPMG, the deal had to be done very quickly, so it enabled Canary Wharf to get to know a wider real estate and tax team at CC."
