Germany Tattersall Lorenz to manage the Sony Center

Sony Center is a mixed-use complex opened in 2000. It is famous for its spectacular roof structure designed by celebrity architect Helmut Jahn. The complex offers 113,000 sqm of space and comprises eight buildings, including the Deutsche Bahn tower, 85,000 sqm of prime office space, 20,000 sqm for retail and leisure, and 67 residential units. The main tenants of the Sony Center are, among others, Deutsche Bahn and WeWork. Tattersall Lorenz will start managing the complex on 1 April 2023. Pre-property management and onboarding activities are already under way.

Oxford Properties and NBIM, the owners of the Sony Center, are planning to spend around EUR 200 mln on revitalisation works in the complex. These include upgrading around 50,000 sqm of office space to transform it into the workplaces of tomorrow. The café/restaurant offer is to be widened, a major feature will be a new two-storey food hall arranged by London-based food innovator KERB. High-quality retailers are also to be secured for the Sony Center. These enhancements will be complemented by an annual events programme, covering sports, culture and entertainment, open to Berliners and visitors as well as tenants of the Sony Center.
