Lambert Smith Hampton (LSH) has been appointed by New Era Development (UK) Ltd as the joint office letting agents alongside Colloco for the Grade A office space at New Era Square, one of Sheffield’s most vibrant and architecturally distinctive mixed-use developments. 

Located in the heart of the rapidly emerging St Mary’s Gate area, New Era Square is a transformational £66 million development that blends office, residential, retail and cultural uses. Inspired by international placemaking principles and driven by inward investment, the scheme has become a thriving community hub, centred around a landscaped public square with amenities and restaurants. Located with frontage to the Inner Ring Road and with strong connections to the city centre, Sheffield Railway Station and major arterial routes, the development provides a unique proposition for occupiers seeking high-quality space outside the traditional city core. 

LSH’s appointment includes the marketing of over 28,000 sq ft of flexible Grade A workspace across five floors of the building. The offices boast high-specification finishes, a striking double-height reception, secure parking, EPC B rating, and easy access to surrounding amenities, all set within a diverse, modern urban environment. 

Matt Procter, Senior Surveyor at LSH, commented: 

“We’re thrilled to be representing New Era Square, a standout building that combines high-quality office space with the cultural energy and flexibility modern occupiers demand. With on-site parking, tremendous ESG credentials and a strong urban setting it bridges the gap between traditional city core buildings and fringe-located innovation clusters. Our team will be delivering a bold, occupier-led leasing strategy to activate the space and bring fresh energy to the remaining floors.” 

The appointment comes at a time when Sheffield’s office market is evolving. While overall take-up in early 2025 has been subdued, the flight to quality trend remains a key market force, with occupiers prioritising buildings with strong ESG credentials, central connectivity and high-grade amenities. With prominent schemes like Elshaw House and the Isaacs Building setting new benchmarks for quality and rent, New Era Square is uniquely placed to capture demand from tech, media, professional services, and growing scale-ups seeking adaptable space with character and identity. 

Jerry Cheung, Managing Director of New Era Development, commented: 

“We are pleased to offer high-quality Grade A office space at New Era Square, Sheffield’s landmark mixed-use development. New Era Square combines exceptional amenities, strong transport links- a prime location just outside the Clean Air Zone, competitive rental and service charges, a complimentary parking space and a vibrant business community, making it an ideal location for growing and established companies alike." 

LSH brings unrivalled local knowledge and a proven track record across Sheffield’s leading office assets, having advised on schemes including Elshaw House, 3 St Paul’s Place and Isaacs Building and continues to shape the next chapter in the city’s commercial growth story.
