The Property Bulletin’s Post

Great to attend the London Property Alliance (CPA & WPA) City of London Market Update this morning at 8 Bishopsgate, hosted by Stanhope PLC. Tom Mabelson, John Hutchings, and Nahuel Mainard-Sardon enjoyed a thought-provoking discussion on the trends shaping the future of the City’s real estate market.   There was a fascinating discussion amongst the panel exploring the trends and opportunities shaping the future of the City of London’s real estate market. The importance of a mixed development pipeline was highlighted, with future and current development blending community and leisure uses, with Grade A office space.   Our key takeaway? The importance of seamless transport infrastructure in maintaining and growing the City’s global competitiveness. As we plan for growth, ensuring excellent connectivity and first-class end-of-trip facilities will be vital in attracting business and talent, reinforcing the City’s position as a world-leading business hub. #property #transportplanning

We recently welcomed Tim Clark from Property Week to Greenford Quay, our community in West London, and one of the largest build-to-rent developments in the UK. "Using modular construction and volumetric technology, Greenford Quay is an example of how to build much-needed new homes, at scale and at speed... If the newly elected Labour government is to build its promised 1.5 million homes by the end of the current parliament, schemes such as Greenford Quay could provide a vital template." Our Senior Director, Construction, Kevin McHugh said: "This is a good indication of how modern methods of construction can significantly aid in accelerating the speed at which homes are built in the UK. We support construction methodologies that deliver sustainable solutions and better design and reduce delivery times by 50%."
