Shell-Mex House sold

Shell-Mex House in the Strand has been sold for just under £500m to Westbrook, the US fund manager. The 51,096 sq m (550,000 sq ft) art deco building was owned by a group of private investors, including Robert and Vincent Tchenguiz, David and Simon Reuben and Jack Dellal, who acquired the building in 2002 for £327m from Lehman Brothers. The building has been on the market since early 2006 and has seen several bids fall through, possibly because of rising interest rates. Westbrook was advised by Knight Frank and CB Richard Ellis advised the consortium. - (06-07-2007)

Hedge funds boost take up

Take up by financial services groups, including hedge funds and banks, has risen from 21% of total take up in 2004 to 37% over the last year according to research by Cushman & Wakefield. The research has also identified the impact of the Government's Lyons Review which has effectively put a moratorium on public sector deals. In the West End the public sector share of take up dropped from 32% in 2004 to just 9% over the last year. In contrast demand from hedge funds has helped push the financial services sector share of take up in the West End up from 17% to 32% over the same period. David Hume at Cushman & Wakefield has said that the figures show an "extremely healthy" market. - (06-07-2006)

Quangos go "head to head"

The Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment (CABE) has announced that it is to appear at the public inquiry into the proposed Heron Tower at 110 Bishopsgate, London EC2. CABE will appear in support of the scheme when the inquiry starts at the end of October. CABE's views are contrary to those of English Heritage, which is objecting to the scheme. CABE's chief executive Jon Rouse has been quoted as saying that it is willing to go "head to head" with English Heritage over a scheme it believes is suitable. "It's a bit like David against Goliath, but we have to stand up and be counted," he is reported as saying. - (17-08-2001)

Sainsbury plans SE1 towers

Foster & Partners has revealed plans for a 35,765 sq m (385,000 sq ft) 19-storey oval office tower to replace food retailers Sainsbury's existing Drury House and Stamford House headquarters at Stamford Street, London SE1. Sainsbury is linked with Stanhope on the proposals. A planning application for the £270m scheme has just been submitted to London Borough of Southwark along with an application for a second new building on the firm's car park site in Maymott Street. The tower has a tapered 'neck' and a low-rise office block forms the base. A Sainsbury's 'Central' supermarket could be incorporated in the ground floor. The 14,490 sq m (156,000 sq ft) Maymott Street scheme could cost £70m and is planned as a 22-storey tower designed by architect Lifschutz Davidson. Sainsbury is working on the site assembly for the scheme and is said to be in the process of acquiring Wakefield House and 19-21 Blackfriars Road from Dunloe Ewart, the developer. Sainsbury is thought to be seeking to develop around 46,451 sq m (500,000 sq ft) in the various SE1 developments for completion in 2004. Sainsbury is still thought to be considering its options on the 11,150 sq m (120,000 sq ft) Rennie House, on the south side of Stamford Street. Sainsbury staff will relocate to 33 Holborn Place, London WC1, to allow the headquarters development to proceed. Healey & Baker is advising Sainsbury. - (22-04-2001)
