“Investec is a global bank which wanted to establish a new presence in Manchester. It was important to have office space which reflected the Bank’s prestigious image in a prime location. Normally such good quality space is only available to large occupiers.

The Pinnacle provides the Bank with its own front door and all visitors gasp at the spectacular views through the dramatic full glazed cladding. Without a doubt the Pinnacle has been a key factor in the successful establishment of Investec’s new operation.”

“The Roberts Partnership occupy the 4th Floor of Freetrade Exchange, Peter Street, Manchester.

Our staff and clients are all impressed with the look and ‘feel’ of the building, combining classical, solid architecture with a modern, bright, comfortable working environment.

The finish of the fittings together with the common parts and our individual suite fit out has produced a number of compliments from visitors - especially the sympathetic design of the office structure has given its proximity to the well known landmark, Free Trade Hall.”

Tony Antczak - The Roberts Partnership

“We occupy the 4th floor of The Pinnacle Building, 73 King Street, Manchester. The move has been very positive for our business which is involved in Investment Management as it has established our brand and presence right in the heart of the financial district of Manchester. The building has a high quality feel about it and the extensive use of glass has created a very airy and spacious environment. We have received many compliments on the quality of our offices from our clients and advisors.”

“I first became involved with Property Alliance Group in 2002 when they were appointed to build a 50,000 sq ft warehouse / manufacturing unit for TRW at Mill Hill, North West Industrial Estate, Peterlee on a design build basis.

The building was then very soon remodelled by them for electronics manufacturing, at a total cost of £3.5m.

The building was erected on time within a 26 week programme and on budget, and the electronics fit out included building alterations and very complex services and air conditioning, with the 28 week project completed on time with phased handovers to allow the company to continue operations.

TRW Automotive employs 63,000 people in 25 countries, and had annual turnover of $12.6b in 2005. I am responsible for their real estate in Europe and Asia Pacific, involving inter alia many large construction projects. I can say with my 48 years experience in the industry I have only rarely been involved with a company that provides the all round performance that Property Alliance Group have produced. Much of this arises from a company culture that is heavily client focussed, but without the professionalism they produce this would not count for too much. What they promise they produce, and this is refreshing in today's culture.

I have no hesitation in recommending them to you.”
