Facebook may move into Brussels' most expensive property

Social networking site Facebook has likely found an office space for its Brussels branch, according to De Tijd. Facebook will take over the sixth floor of the office building at the corner of Boulevand du Regent and Rue de la Loi, says the newspaper.

Facebook has been searching for some time for an ideal Brussels location with plenty of visibility. The building, one of the most expensive properties in Brussels, is located in the same neighbourhood as the Belgian prime minister's official residence and office and the US Embassy.

The brand new Regent Park offices recently sold the entire sixth floor – about 800 square metres – to the social networking site, says the newspaper. The annual rental price ranges from €290- to €350 per square metre.

The property brokers have yet to confirm the information, writes Bruzz.
