Cale Street Partners has taken control of the Tour Hopen building in La Defense, Paris, due to rising vacancy rates and declining property values. Previously owned by a Praemia-led consortium, the building's management has shifted to Generale Continentale Investissements.

La Defense's vacancy rate has reached 31.8%, as demand for office space shifts to central Paris, influenced by remote work trends and political uncertainties. Tour Europe is also up for sale, anticipated to attract bids under €170 million. Additional office towers owned by TotalEnergies SE are being offered as the company relocates.
