History
editThe building was developed in a joint venture with the National Asset Management Agency (NAMA) on the site of the proposed U2 Tower.[5] Concrete foundations, as well as three floors below street level and one above level, had been completed on the original development before it was cancelled.[citation needed]
In 2012, Kennedy Wilson acquired the site and development started at the end of 2014. In May 2017, they sold the 130,000 sq ft (12,000 m2) 200 Capital Dock building to JPMorgan on a forward funding sale agreement. In December 2017, Kennedy Wilson signed a 20-year lease with Indeed, to fully occupy buildings 100 and 300 Capital Dock.[6]
Retail tenants include Fresh, BrewDog, Freshii and the Art of Coffee.[7]
