AXA Real Estate Investment Managers announces that it signed 96 leases representing a total of 175,000 sq m of space across its French office portfolio in 2011, a significant increase of 23% on a total of 142,000 sq m let in 2010. Of the 96 lettings, 58, representing 63,000 sq m, were new leases, while the remaining 38, accounting for 112,000 sq m of space, comprised lease renewals and extensions.
The company also announces the pre-letting of the entire landmark building 17 Avenue Matignon to the international law firm Hogan Lovells on a long term lease.
