OFFICES IN ALDGATE

At the heart of London’s finance sector, Aldgate is a prime location for modern businesses to establish their headquarters. Positioned in close proximity to the City of London, the area is home to major business centres, attracting insurance companies, brokerage firms, and other financial services to Aldgate. Yet that is not all. As Aldgate is so centrally located, you are never far from neighbouring areas including Old Street – ideal for those in tech – or Shoreditch – for creatives. Choosing to situate your office in Aldgate could therefore be perfect for your organisation to grow and thrive in a central London district. Whether you’re seeking a private office, coworking space, or temporary work space, there are plenty of options in the Aldgate area to suit all your business needs.

WHAT OFFICE SPACES
CAN I GET IN ALDGATE?

Aldgate is great for its variety of office spaces available. Most organisations opt for a private, serviced office which is fully furnished. This ensures that the majority of office issues will be dealt with by the building management, and also allows your company to have a secure space to conduct your work. Private office spaces can vary in size, fitting between 6-50 people. Aldgate’s business centres are key locations for these private offices. However, a private space will often be the more expensive office option. If your business is likely to use the space every day then the outgoings on rent can be well worth the cost. Though, be sure to take this into consideration before finalising your office decision.

If you are a smaller business or seeking a more flexible workspace in Aldgate, there are alternatives which might better suit your requirements. Coworking spaces have boosted in popularity over recent years due to their flexibility and low cost. For those on a hybrid work pattern or project-based work, a coworking space would be ideal as you only pay for when the space (or desk) is used. Similarly, temporary office spaces in Aldgate are another adaptable option, where an office can be rented for less than the usual rental period – often less than a month. Considering all your workspace options is therefore key as it could drastically minimise your overheads and make all the difference to your business budgets.

More Information About Aldgate

Despite its financial allure, Aldgate’s history cannot go unnoticed. The original purpose of Aldgate was to serve as a defensive gate along with 7 others during the Roman era, hence establishing its name – originally Alegate. As part of the wall around the City of London, Aldgate’s historic origin can still be observed in the architecture of some of the area’s buildings today. Plus, Aldgate’s proximity to the Tower of London makes for a particularly historical atmosphere.

There are also a range of restaurants and bars throughout Aldgate, which can be a great way to impress clients or wind down after a long working day. It is worth noting, that there are few things to do in Aldgate as it is primarily a financial district. Though fear not, thanks to its location, in Aldgate you are never too far from something to do. From Shoreditch to Liverpool Street and Whitechapel, accessing the sights and fun activities are never too far away.
