Making the most of existing space

Article Abstract:

Office refurbishment is expected to become increasingly popular due to the lack of funds available for new office buildings. The new PPG 13 planning guidelines could also encourage refurbishment rather than newbuild, with the authorities expected to demand less density and car parking space for new buildings than for refurbished ones. The property market in some towns such as Croydon, England, will only support refurbishment rather than newbuild due to oversupply.
