Reuters closes last office in Fleet Street area
Wednesday 27 January 2010
Reuters has closed its last office in the Fleet Street area – London Bureau has moved a mile east, closer to the main UK office at Canary Wharf.
The new address, Aldgate House, 33 Aldgate High Street, is adjacent to Aldgate Tube station. It was officially opened by Lord Sebastian Coe, former Olympic champion middle distance runner now chairman of the London Organising Committee for the 2012 Olympic Games.
The bureau was previously in Kildare House on Dorset Rise off Fleet Street. Reuters sold its long-time headquarters at 85 Fleet Street and moved to Canary Wharf in London’s Docklands in 2005.

Thomson Reuters seeks more office space in London’s Docklands
Monday 14 December 2009
Four years after Reuters moved to London’s Docklands, Thomson Reuters is searching for more office space at Canary Wharf.
The company is consolidating from its City of London buildings occupied by the former Thomson group into space closer to the 283,000 square feet building at 30 South Colonnade to which Reuters transferred in 2005 after selling its landmark headquarters at 85 Fleet Street.
The website Need Office Space said likely properties for the relocation include 5 Churchill Place, which was sold last week for £208 million, and 328,000 square feet at 30 North Colonnade.
The Thomson arm of the group occupies almost 200,000 square feet in the City, including 56,000 square feet at Aldgate House, 50,000 square feet at 1 Mark Square, 46,000 square feet at 71-80 Hatton Garden and 42,000 square feet at 58-64 City Road.
