Item 2. Properties
We have offices in various locations throughout the world. Substantially all of our offices are located in leased premises. We maintain our corporate headquarters at 122 Leadenhall Street, London, England, where we occupy approximately 190,000 square feet of space under an operating lease agreement that expires in 2034. We own one significant building at Pallbergweg 2-4, Amsterdam, the Netherlands (150,000 square feet). The following are additional significant leased properties, along with the occupied square footage and expiration.
| Property: | Occupied Square Footage | Lease Expiration Dates | ||
| 200 E. Randolph Street, Chicago, Illinois | 406,000 | 2028 | ||
| 199 Water Street, New York, New York (1) | 319,000 | 2018 |
| (1) | In August 2018, Aon will move to 1 Liberty Plaza, New York, New York. The Company has signed a 10 year lease for 240,000 square feet to replace the 199 Water Street location. |
In general, no difficulty is anticipated in negotiating renewals as leases expire or in finding other satisfactory space if the premises become unavailable. We believe that the facilities we currently occupy are adequate for the purposes for which they are being used and are well maintained. In certain circumstances, we may have unused space and may seek to sublet such space to third parties, depending upon the demands for office space in the locations involved. See Note 9 “Lease Commitments” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of this report for information with respect to our lease commitments as of December 31, 2017.
