Why it matters

Beazley is securing operational space in a high-standard, newly developed commercial property in Bermuda. This move reflects the strong market demand for Class A office space in the territory, even as other new prime office supply, such as the 135,000 sq ft Luscar Place, hits the market.

The project itself was supported by Premier David Burt's government and involved more than 40 Bermudian subcontractors. The building is noted for setting a new standard for office space in Bermuda and is one of the few multi-tenant buildings to achieve LEED Platinum certification.

What we don't know yet
