The Giants agreed to pay $450 per sqm with 3% annual increases for its new Melbourne offices. 

Mr Friend said more than 50 enquiries were received for the property, with interest coming from a range of industries. 

"The suite offers ample natural light with fantastic views west overlooking the harbour and towards the Bolte Bridge, and as expected attracted tenants from a range of industries including tech companies, law firms, not-for-profits and media agencies,” he said. 

“For the Giants, the suite presented an excellent opportunity to set up an office conveniently close to AFL House and enhance their communication capabilities with the league. 

“Spaces of this type attract a great deal of attention when they become available, as vacancies across Docklands have continued to firm in the first several months of 2019 and are now at the tightest level of any of Melbourne’s central precincts.”
