BBC Studios is Keppel REIT's newest tenant in North Sydney asset

It will relocate to a boutique office development, 2 Blue Street (formerly known as Blue & William), in North Sydney.

Keppel REIT Management Limited and Lendlease have announced that BBC Studios Australia will be relocating its Australia and New Zealand headquarters to 2 Blue Street, North Sydney.

BBC Studios Australia will occupy approximately 1,800 square metres on level 3 of the 10-storey building.

The media company will join a roster of other tenants, including global data firm Equifax, Human Synergistics, and rail freight company Pacific National.

Designed by architecture studio Woods Bagot, the building offers features such as a wellness garden, views of Sydney Harbour, and on-site dining at Northbrew Café.

Keppel REIT acquired the property in December 2021, with practical completion achieved in April 2023. Lendlease developed and manages the building, further expanding its commercial presence in North Sydney.

The property is designed to achieve a 5-Star Green Star Design and As Built Rating from the Green Building Council of Australia, as well as a 5.5 Stars National Australian Built Environment Rating System Base Building Energy Rating, both pending certification.

Tom Mackellar, CEO of Development at Lendlease, noted that 2 Blue Street is 80% leased, driven by strong demand for premium workspaces in North Sydney, especially following the opening of the Victoria Cross and new metro station.
