Hot wired for growth

Article Abstract:

The e-commerce company, boo.com, sells sportswear to a global market. It has been operating since Dec 1998 and in Feb 1999 moved into a building in Carnaby Street, London. The firm, which was started by Patrik Hedelin, Ernst Malmsten and Kajsa Leander, was run by just eight people. But by April 1999 the workforce had grown to 110. The management of boo.com realised they needed to employ a firm to manage their changing property needs and they asked Space Station to take on the task. They eventually found suitable office space at Regent Street, London, which was owned by The Crown Estate.

Strong on spending

Article Abstract:

Retailing is an important sector of the property market in the London boroughs of Kensington and Chelsea.

High premiums are being paid for space in Kensington High Street. A significant trend in Kensington is the growing number of media companies seeking space. An overview of the commercial property market in Kensington and Chelsea is presented.

In a state of good health

Article Abstract:

The improvements to the A13 highway out of London are expected to offer new opportunities for commercial property development in the London boroughs of Barking, Havering and Dagenham. Property demand in the area is set to increase and the lack of new development could force rent rises. An overview of the commercial and industrial property market in outer east London is presented.
