As of May 2024, 60% of its lettable space is occupied.[3] Some notable tenants include British auction house Christie's,[6] the CPP Investment Board,[7] Audemars Piguet[8] and Carlyle.[3] The Henderson had an occupancy rate of about 80% as of Mar 2025.[9] On 7 June 2024, The Henderson welcomed its first batch of tenants.[10]
