Leeds South Bank is the citys most significant regeneration opportunity — the largest brownfield development site in the UK, with planning approved for over 10 million square feet of commercial and residential space on former industrial land south of the River Aire. The area runs from Holbeck in the west through the Tetley Brewery site (now the Tetley Building) to Crown Street in the east.
The South Bank Partnership — a joint venture between legal & general and Leeds City Council — is the development vehicle for the largest phase of the regeneration. Leeds City Councils offices are moving to the South Bank, consolidating civic functions in the area. The Kirkstall Forge and Beckside sections are already delivering new residential and commercial space. The Riverside development will complete the eastern end.
Current rents in South Bank are at a significant discount to the city centre — this is the opportunity. Early adopters establishing in South Bank now will benefit from the placemaking investment and connectivity upgrades as the development delivers. The Leeds station southern access improvement — currently being discussed as a rail link — would be transformative for South Banks connectivity.

Traditional office search routes you through a broker who charges 10–15% of year-one rent. On a typical South Bank deal worth £78K/year, that's £8K extracted from the deal before you sign a lease.
Seek removes that layer entirely. Your enquiry goes direct to the building's operator. They quote their real number. You negotiate direct.
Standard broker fee: 10% of year-one rent. Here's what that costs at typical South Bank deal sizes — and what you keep on Seek.
