{{Use dmy dates|date=February 2018}}{{Use British English|date=February 2018}}City Place Gatwick is an office complex located on the property of London Gatwick Airport in Crawley, West Sussex, England.[1] The complex includes four buildings: The Beehive, an approximately {{convert|20000|sqft|sqm|adj=on}} former terminal building at Gatwick Airport located on a {{convert|2.0|acre|ha|adj=on}} site; 1 City Place a {{convert|131500|sqft|sqm|adj=on}} facility on a {{convert|4.2|acre|ha|adj=on}} site, 2 City Place, a {{convert|85000|sqft|sqm|adj=on}} building on a {{convert|1.9|acre|ha}} plot, and 3 City Place, a {{convert|65000|sqft|sqm|adj=on}} building on a {{convert|1.06|acre|ha|adj=on}} plot.[2] Hamiltons Architects designed the "L" shaped 3 City Place.[3]BT Wholesale formerly had an office at 1 City Place.[4] BDO International has an office at 2 City Place.[5] Beehive City Place previously housed the head offices of GB Airways, which had its head office in the Beehive,[6] and CP Ships, which had its head office in 2 City Place.[7]

In 2012, Nestlé UK announced they would be moving their head office from St George's House Croydon to the former BT building at 1 City Place.[8]

History

City Place was developed by BAA Lynton.[9] In March 2000,[10] BT Group pre-let {{convert|14000|sqm|sqft}} of space at City Place, which at the time had {{convert|46500|sqm|sqft}} of available space; it was a part of an effort by BT to move employees from Central London to locations along the M25 motorway.[9] The BT 15-year lease had an initial rent of £242 per square metre. BT had an option to use an additional {{convert|10200|sqm|sqft}} once the space became available. Construction at 1 City Place was completed in May 2002, and BT planned to occupy the building at the end of 2002.[10] In October 2002 BAA Lynton announced that it was selling 1 City Place, which was valued at £41.7 million. The real estate arm of Gulf Atlantic bought 1 City Place.[10] BAA received 14 million pounds from the sale of 1 City Place Gatwick and Heathrow South Cargo Centre 1.[11]

2 City Place was forward funded by the Co-operative Insurance Society.[10] BAA Lynton was building phase two of 2 City Place as of November 2001.[12]

The owners of the Beehive leased the building to GB Airways, and later sold it to the airline.[10] When Easyjet announced its purchase of most of GB Airways's assets in 2007, The Beehive was not included. The employment base at The Beehive closed, with 284 job losses.[13]

In 2003 CP Ships moved its European HQ in to 2 City Place.{{Citation needed|date=February 2011}} In 2004 it announced that it would move its head office from Trafalgar Square, City of Westminster to Gatwick.[14] After Hapag-Lloyd acquired CP Ships, in 2006 Hapag-Lloyd announced it would cut 500 positions at Gatwick.[15] In 2007 BDO International announced that it was moving an office to Gatwick from Bromley, London Borough of Bromley. BDO leased the entire {{convert|21000|sqft|sqm|adj=on}} second floor of its new building.[16] After the purchase by easyJet occurred in January 2008, the building was retained by GB's former parent company, Bland Group.[17]

Construction on a £10.2 million, four storey office building at CityPlace was completed in September 2008.[18]

Former tenants

A number of airlines have had offices at the Beehive, including BEA/British Airways Helicopters,[19][20] Jersey Airlines, Caledonian Airways, Virgin Atlantic and GB Airways.[21][22][23][24]

Other airlines which had headquarters on airport property (including office buildings on the site of, or adjacent to, the original 1930s airport) include British Caledonian,[25][26] British United Airways,[27] CityFlyer Express,[28] Laker Airways[29] and Tradewinds Airways.[30][31]
