Berkshire Hathaway, the multinational conglomerate holding company owed by Warren Buffet, will occupy the third floor comprising 5,580 sq ft with the LCM Family, the family financial planning experts, taking 5,000 sq ft on the fourth floor. Both suites have been delivered to a plug and play specification.
