The next phase of development will see a further 1.6 million sq. ft of mixed-use space added, alongside 450 new homes, reinforcing Thorpe Park\u2019s position as a leading mixed-use destination.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cIt\u2019s a privilege to return to Thorpe Park in a new capacity. Having been part of the estate\u2019s early growth, it\u2019s incredible to see the transformation it has undergone. The scale and quality of development here is outstanding, and we\u2019re excited to support its next chapter by ensuring the facilities and day-to-day operations meet the high standards expected by occupiers, visitors, and the local community.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rachel Vickers, Senior Commercial Manager at SGI, commented: \u201cThorpe Park Leeds is much more than a business park, it\u2019s a dynamic, connected community that continues to set new standards for regional placemaking. As we enter the next phase of growth, it\u2019s essential we have partners who understand the scale of our ambition and the importance of delivering an exceptional day-to-day experience for occupiers, residents and visitors alike.
