Affine signs a 12-year lease with GFI Informatique for 2,170 sqm in the Tangram
in Lyon
Affine has just signed a 12-year-lease, 6 years of which is firm, with GFI
Informatique, a French digital services company, for a surface area of 2,170
sqm in the Tangram in Lyon, taking it to an occupancy rate of 83%.
This 5,700 sqm office building is located at Part-Dieu, Boulevard des
Tchécoslovaques, an extension of Boulevard Vivier Merle. This mixed activity
area, with residences and offices, enjoys good public transportation service
with two underground stations nearby, numerous bus lines and a tramway access.
The Tangram has undergone a major restructuring, carried out by the Lyon firm
of architects Laurent Bansac, including complete renovation of the façade and
offering amenities worthy of a new building. Delivery of the complex took place
in January 2016, and 2,750 sqm is already let to ISCOM, a private educational
institution.
As part of this refurbishment programme, Affine obtained the DEFFIBAT subsidy
granted by ADEME, which aims to encourage best initiatives in the Rhône-Alpes
region relating to low energy consumption, as well as concern for environmental
and health issues (quality of life and use, water, waste, etc.). The tenants
will all benefit from brand- new offices fitted entirely with low-energy LED
lights.
Affine aims to obtain BBC Rénovation Effinergie labelling for Tangram.
In this transaction, CBRE acted as an adviser to the owner and the lessee.
