Arbor Education, the UK management information systems (MIS) and school management software company, is taking 9,764 sq ft of quality office space on the third floor of the historic building on a 10-year lease.

Owner Kinrise is behind the transformation of 34 Boar Lane, a 57,000 sq ft building with 46,000 sq ft of office space over five floors and cafes and restaurants on the ground floor. It is located immediately opposite Leeds Railway Station in the heart of the city’s professional and retail quarters.

Eamon Fox, partner and head of office at Knight Frank in Leeds, which is marketing 34 Boar Lane, said: "This significant deal is a resounding endorsement of the quality of this magnificent building.

“Ever since we started marketing 34 Boar Lane, we have been choosing our occupiers very carefully. The spirit and ethos of the building is crucial. Arbor Education is a proven leader in its specialist field and is one of the fastest growing and most progressive education software companies in the UK and fits this aspirational culture perfectly.”
