1 Cabot Square (also known as the Credit Suisse building) is a 21-floor office building occupied by Credit Suisse[2] in the Canary Wharf development in London, England. Original plans called for a skyscraper on this site for CSFB, however the slump at the end of the 1980s saw these plans scaled back.
The architect on the project was Pei Cobb Freed & Partners, and the building was completed in 1991. It is 89 metres tall (292 feet) with a floorspace of 50,166 square metres (164,587 square feet). The building has large, open plates on the floor that range in size from 64,500 square foot to 24,000 square foot in the executive offices.[3] It is internally connected to the west, to 20 Columbus Courtyard, which is also connected to a full-height internal link to the north, 17 Columbus Courtyard.[3]
In early 2012 it was purchased by Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund Qatar Investment Authority (QIA)[4][5] Subsequently QIA considered selling it multiple times[2] before eventually selling to South Korea’s KB Securities.[6]
The building is leased to Credit Suisse for around 20 years and part of Canary Wharf, of which QIA bought a majority in a joint venture with Brookfield in 2015[7]
