Info
The new BBC Wales headquarters building, officially known as 3 Central Square and also known as BBC New Broadcasting House, in Central Square, Cardiff is currently being constructed. The £120 million building will replace the BBC Cymru Wales Broadcasting House in Cardiff, with BBC staff moving in during the autumn of 2019. The building will be half the size of the current Broadcasting House in Llandaff.The building has been designed by Foster + Partners, and when fully open, it will accommodate 1,200 staff on its four floors, providing office, studio and production space. The building is on the site of the former Cardiff Central bus station. It is envisaged that an estimated 50,000 people will visit the new building every year. The BBC agreed a 20 year lease on the building at an annual rent of around £25 per square foot per annum with Rightacres Property Company, the developer of the Central Square.
