Commercial Property Executive is noting that the UK’s Brompton Asset Management has snapped up Industry House.
Brompton Asset Management’s acquisition of the Industry House tower marks its second purchase in the Canberra office market. The company owns another major property at 255 London Circuit. Both assets hold strong federal government lease covenants.
