L&G unveils St Giles Court plans

Legal & General and Stanhope have unveiled designs for a mixed-use 46,451 sq m (500,000 sq ft) for St Giles Court, St Giles High Street, off Oxford Street, London WC2. The scheme has been designed by the Italian architect, Renzo Piano and includes offices, restaurants and retail based around a new semi-covered public space.

The scheme would require the demolition of L&G’s 18,600 sq m (200,000 sq ft) St Giles Court office block, currently occupied by the Ministry of Defence on a lease until 2011. At present public consultation into the propsals is underway and a planning application could be submitted to London Borough of Camden later this year. - (16-02-2004)

'right to light' claim

Churchill Securities is now said to be seeking an injunction against Marks & Spencer claiming that its development at 70 Gracechurch Street, also known as Limebank House, 168 Fenchurch Street, London EC3 affects a "right to light" clause on an adjoining building that Churchill owns. It appears that discussions have not resolved the issue and the threat of legal action is making it harder for M&S to find a tenant. Churchill is thought to have made M&S an offer of £150m for the building, subject to planning consent being granted to convert the recently completed building into a 34-storey tower (which would reportedly cost another £130m).

Colliers Conrad Ritblat Erdman and Jones Lang LaSalle are the letting agents for the scheme. It has also been reported that three City firms have pulled out of negotiations for Limebank House due to the legal problems. - (01-10-2001)

SDG may submit new application

Spitalfields Development Group (SDG), now owned by Hammerson, is according to Property Week thought to be considering submitting a new planning application for its office scheme at 1-10 Bishops Square, London E1. The new application could be submitted for a named occupier once SDG has a pre-let. SDG has been reluctant to submit a new application, as requested by London Borough of Tower Hamlets, as it considers the 'reserved matter' applications submitted as being within the scope of the original 1997 permission. Tower Hamlets had been awaiting legal opinion on the question of whether the reserved matter applications were acceptable or if a new planning application was required due to 'material changes'. - (08-05-2001)
